This year we will focus on the knee with strong emphasis on the clinical aspects of our activity. Every session of the refresh course, except one, will have the presence of one orthopedic surgeons or rheumatologist. This will be a very good opportunity to have an interesting roundtable discussion at the end of the session. Big thanks to the European Society for Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery and Arthroscopy ESSKA and warm welcome to the ESSKA representatives to give us the opportunity to translate our idea of collaborations into realty and to increase the awareness of the needs and expectations of our referring physicians.
As usual, the congress will offer scientific sessions and workshops on ultrasound, on spondyloarthritis, on basic conventional radiology back to the basics , and on artificial Intelligence. Furthermore, the SSSR Swiss Society of Musculoskeletal Radiology will organize a workshop coordinate by Prof Marco Zanetti on mimickers, pitfalls, and asymptomatic abnormalities that are sometime a headache in our daily activity.
Innovation is the heart of imaging. As such, during the meeting, a state-of-the art technical exhibit will be available to give an insight into the latest developments in radiological equipment, supplies, technologic advances and services.
Do not forget to meet friends and colleagues. Our location, the Ciani Park, just on the lake of Lugano, is a walking distance to city center and other attraction and is a perfect location for a relaxing walking and for networking with friends and colleagues.
The 31st ESSR annual meeting cordially invites representatives of all musculoskeletal related disciplines both members and non-members of our society, to attend the meeting. Young members are especially welcomed. The Young Club of our society will provide an ideal platform for sharing ideas and experiences of different cultures and to network with new colleagues.
