Jon Lough has been named director of Imaging Services at RMH.
In this new role, Lough will oversee department operations as well as staffing and budget. He succeeds administrative director Judy Budd, who retires this year after leading the department since 1997.

“Jon’s years of experience in teaching and administration in this field make him a perfect fit to lead Imaging Services,” said Dick Pierce, vice president, Ambulatory Care. “He is well-qualified to continue bringing leading-edge technology to RMH.”
Lough graduated from the RMH School of Radiologic Technology in 1986. He holds a bachelor of science degree in radiologic technology from Hood College and will complete his master’s degree in business administration from Eastern Mennonite University this year.
“RMH Imaging Services is a tremendous team of hard-working people,” Lough said. “We are focused on providing an exceptional patient experience using the highest quality imaging capabilities.”
Prior to joining RMH, Lough held positions as manager of the Apple Valley imaging division of Maryland X-Ray, chief radiologic technologist of Winchester Surgical Clinic and radiology staff technologist for Winchester Medical Center. He also worked at RMH before and during his years enrolled in the RMH School of Radiologic Technology.
