Dear Colleagues,
I am truly honored to serve as the President of the 32nd Iranian Congress of Radiology and it is a great privilege to welcome all participants to ICR 2016 in Tehran.
In accordance with the high standards that were set for more than three decades, we have tried our best to gather a top team of Iranian and international leading experts in different fields of radiology. It is my privilege to assure that the scientific committee will serve the best interest of all participating radiologists. ICR 2016 will be a great opportunity not only for radiologists but also for all the doctors with other areas of expertise to gather and participate in a scientific program which will have some of the leading radiologists as the presenters and speakers in this event. It is noteworthy that there will be time for participants to interact with some of the most prominent experts in the field of radiology.
This year, the main themes of the congress are Women’s Imaging and Imaging Studies of the GI Tract. The importance and necessity of the existence of Women’s Imaging (both regionally and globally) has been a long-existing topic of interest and debate in the field of radiology that will be discussed and dealt with in more details than any previous congress. Also, we will elaborately present and discuss the most recent achievements in the radiological studies of the GI Tract. Furthermore and for the first time in the history of ICR, concepts such as Imaging Economics and Also Steps towards Structured Reporting in Radiology will be presented and elaborately discussed and debated.
For the second year in a row, the congress venue is to be the International Convention Center at Milad Tower which is the most outstanding landmark of modern Tehran.
I look forward to seeing you all from May 3rd to 6th, 2016 in Tehran.
Marina Pourafkari
President of the 32nd Iranian Congress of Radiology (ICR 2016)
