Dr. Kayes received a letter of congratulations on Jan. 23, 2015, from the ACR’s nominating committee, notifying him of his appointment. He is the first Hawai‘i radiologist to hold the position. 

“It’s an honor to be chosen to represent the private practice sector and it’s a special moment to have radiologists from Hawai‘i involved in shaping our field of expertise nationally,” said Dr. Kayes.

The two-year term will involve Dr. Kayes in Mainland travel to attend conferences. He will serve as a Hawai‘i representative for the field of radiology.

Dr. Kayes has been a member of the ACR for 13 years, one of over 37,000 members. He will begin his representative duties in May 2015 at an awards ceremony in Washington, DC.
