Abstract		Backgraund. The manuscript presents a short history of the Clinical Radiology Institute in Ljubljana, University Clinical Centre, and the leading radiological institution in Slovenia since its establishment in 1923. Throughout its history the Institute has been faced with numerous obstacles. Its major problems have always included the lack of professional and economical independence, which has made it difficult for the Institute to keep up with the fask technological development of the world's radiology, as well as the shortage of radiologists and radiographers with the consequence of the excessive work load and difficulties in educational and research activities. Despite some serious problems the expertise of the Institute's Ieadership, together with the enthusiasm of all radiologists and radiographers, has enabled a continuous professional and technological development which is the basis of today's high quality diagnostic and interventional radiology. Many of the remarkable aehievements would not have been possible without some extraordinary personalities who laid down the solid foundations of today's lnstitute. Conclusions. Eighty years of Clinical Radiology Institute in Ljubljana is a history of the successful development of the republic's leading radiological institution, a success based on determination, unity and the professional integrity af all its members and management.
Summary		Izhodišča. Prikazana je kratka zgodovina Kliničnega radiološkega inštituta, Univerzitetnega kliničnega centra v Ljubljani od njegove ustanovitve I. 1923. Skozi celotno zgodovino so se na poti razvoja Inštituta pojavljali številni problemi. Najpomembnejši, s katerimi se soočamo tudi danes, vključujejo pomanjkanje strokovne in ekonomske samostojnosti. Posledica tega je nezmožnost spremljanja hitrega tehnološkega razvoja svetovne radiologije ter nezadostno število radiologov in radioloških inženirjev, ki so čezmerno obremenjeni z rutinskim delom, kar povzroča težave v učni in raziskovalni dejavnonti. Kljub resnim oviram vodstvo Inštituta ter entuzijazem vseh radiologov in radioloških inženirjev zagotavljata nenehni strokovni in tehnološki razvoj, ki je osnova današnje visoko kvalitetne diagnostične in intervencijske radiologije. Mnogo izrednih dosežkov ne bi bilo brez nekaj izrednih oseb, ki so položile trdne temelje današnjega Inštituta. Zaključki. 80 let Kliničnega inštituta za radiolugijo v Ljubljani je zgodovina uspešnega razvoja vodilne radiološke institucije v republiki, ki so jo skupaj z vodstvom zagotovili odločnost, enotnost in profesionalnost vseh zaposlenih.
