World Radiology Day 2025
Today, we celebrate World Radiology Day — a day that reminds us how powerful images can be in saving lives and guiding care.
In our Radiology Department at SPHMMC, every scan, every image, and every report represents teamwork, dedication, and compassion. Behind each picture is a patient, a family, and a story — and we are proud to be part of their healing journey.
I want to take this moment to thank all our radiologists, residents, technologists, nurses, and support staff. Your hard work, patience, and commitment to excellence make a real difference every single day.

Welcome to our celebration of the International Day of Radiology
Dear Our Radiology community, well come to this year International Day of Radiology
The practice of radiology in our country dates back more than three decades. Since its inception, there have been remarkable advancements in both radiological practice and patient care. Over the past thirty years, radiology has evolved from simple X-ray imaging and basic ultrasound to highly specialized subspecialties and advanced interventional radiological procedures.
Throughout these years, we have recognized the importance of developing a well-structured radiology system that can effectively address the needs of emergency care. The infancy of teleradiology services in Ethiopia has contributed to the challenges faced in providing adequate emergency radiology services.
As we celebrate the International Day of Radiology, let us join hands with all relevant stakeholders to reform and strengthen radiology practice in our country, ensuring that it delivers optimal emergency radiology care to our people.
Prof. Tesfaye Kebede
V/P of Radiology Society of Ethiopia

The Hand That Made History: Röntgen’s First X-Ray
On a chilly November evening in 1895, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen noticed something strange in his lab — a screen glowing for no reason. Curious, he spent days and nights experimenting, barely leaving the lab, until he discovered something incredible: a new kind of ray that could pass through objects and reveal what was inside.
His first X-ray? A hauntingly beautiful image of his wife Anna Bertha’s hand, showing her bones and her wedding ring. Imagine the wonder of seeing something so invisible, so ordinary, in a completely new way!
The world was amazed. Doctors quickly realized X-rays could help them see inside the human body without surgery — spotting broken bones, locating bullets, and saving lives.
Despite all the attention, Röntgen stayed humble. He refused to patent his discovery, believing it belonged to everyone. His curiosity, generosity, and perseverance changed medicine forever — earning him the very first Nobel Prize in Physics in 1901.

Why I Became a Radiologist?

It all started in my fourth year of medical school — the year of fractures, bowel obstructions, and endless gray-scale images that somehow spoke volumes to those who cared to listen.During my radiology rotation, I watched the radiologist explaining what seemed like ordinary black-and-white images. But to her, they weren’t just shades of gray — they were stories. Stories of pain, healing, and hope. That was the moment I knew: I wanted to speak that language.Then came my OB-GYN rotation — and I saw something that changed me forever. The beating heart of a tiny fetus on the screen. Life itself, revealed through sound waves and pixels.From that day, I knew my direction was clear. I wanted to be the radiologist who sees from head to toe, who deciphers the silent stories of the human body without ever making an incision.My residency years were tough — long nights, endless cases, and the constant drive to learn. But I’m always proud to have been one of the only female resident among ten radiology residents of my batch. They were more than colleagues; they were my team. They taught me the power of teamwork, resilience, and shared purpose.The COVID years and internal conflicts were the most difficult part of the residency program. But those challenges shaped us — made us sharper, stronger, and more compassionate for the community we were serving.Now, as a general radiologist, I feel my presence matters every single day. Each patient is more than a case to report. Even when looking at their pain can be heartbreaking, being able to diagnose their disease and contribute to their care is deeply fulfilling.My presence matters.Every shade of gray tells a story — and I’m honored to be the one who reads it.Happy International Day of Radiology!Dr. Netsanet Abreham Mamo
