WELCOME MESSAGE FROM MCOR 2022 ORGANISING CHAIR

Warm greetings.

We are excited to announce that Malaysian Congress of Radiology 2022 will be going to Penang this year. Do mark your calendars from the 7th to 9th December 2022.

The theme for this year’s meeting is Precision Imaging: Beyond Pixels and Positrons. This theme addresses the expectations of current modern medicine that imaging has to be meticulous and definitive. This is consistent with how important imaging is in assisting the clinician to diagnose and manage multitude of diseases and ailments. Our theme will further illustrate that radiology is not just about conventional X-rays or scans, but includes also the realm of nuclear and hybrid imaging, which is swiftly becoming the mainstay of imaging today. It will also highlight the expanding role of the radiologist as imaging goes beyond diagnosis and enters the realm of disease management and treatment.

Radiology trainees, you will greatly benefit from attending this Congress as we are also going to dedicate a full day lecture hall on Day 3 to cover radiology exam preparations. This session will include tips and tricks from experienced examiners as well as viva practice sessions.

As always, we welcome everyone to submit their abstracts in our call for abstracts. There will be prizes for the Best Free Paper Oral Presentation.

Malaysian Congress of Radiology 2022 will also highlight the extremely competitive and riveting Dato’ Samad quiz. This quiz re-ignites the friendly inter-university rivalry between radiology trainees. We call upon the universities to select their teams early and to start training for this challenging quiz.

The Organising and Scientific Committee promises to work hard to put together a scientific programme worthy of 3 days in Penang.

We look forward to meeting everyone in Penang.
