Professor Zagzebski began his prestigious career with a bachelor's degree in Physics from St Mary's College in Winona, Minnesota, in 1966 and went right on to receive his masters in physics in 1968 from the University of Wisconsin in Madison, Wisconsin, followed by earning his PhD in radiological sciences in 1972 from the same institution. Zagzebski, PhD, whose dedication to enhancing the field of ultrasound physics has spanned his entire career.
This year, the AIUM is proud to bestow the William J. It recognizes a current or retired AIUM member who has significantly contributed in his or her particular field to the scientific progress of medical ultrasound. Fry Memorial Lecture Award was established in his honor. His impassioned interest in ultrasound led him to become president of the AIUM from 1966 until his death in 1968.
This ultrasonic system was later used to treat various brain diseases and, in particular, Parkinson disease. One of Professor Fry's most notable contributions was the successful design of an ultrasonic system used to pinpoint lesions in the brain without damaging adjacent tissues. Fry was a physicist with a strong interest in ultrasound in medicine, whose innovative research efforts advanced the field of medical ultrasound. Holmes, MD, in 1969 and presented for the first time at the AIUM Convention in Winnipeg, Canada, that year. Fry Memorial Lecture Award was established by Joseph H.
