The ESR’s main activities this year have focused very much on international relations, especially on a political level. We have established an office in Brussels so that we can take a proactive approach to making our collective voice heard in the European Commission on topics that affect our profession. The biggest issue on the agenda in this respect is the ongoing debate regarding the EMF Directive. At the time of writing, we are optimistic that we will hear positive news on this matter by the time we meet at the ECR.

We are also intensifying relations with associate ins-titutional members and other societies outside of Europe. We have organised an international sum-mit for representatives of non-European partners, which we hope will help us gain a better understan-ding of how we can and should work together in the future. We are also bringing our institutional mem-ber societies closer to the fold, by having each one represented at ESR committee level by its president.

I was delighted with the involvement of so many groups from all over the world in the first Inter-national Day of Radiology (IDoR), which took place on November 8. Prompted by the success of the European Day of Radiology in 2011, IDoR 2012 was introduced to provide the first truly global cele-bration of radiology. We were very pleased to see so many radiologists joining us in marking the day and helping to promote our profession. We are also ext-remely grateful to both the Radiological Society of North America and the American College of Radio-logy for their joint role in bringing this event to life.

Our efforts to strengthen relations with the many radiological and partner societies throughout the world will continue at ECR 2013, in the form of the ‘ESR Meets’ programme. This year, along with Prof. Bilbao’s home country, Spain, we will have the pleasure of welcoming the national radiological societies of both Chile and South Africa, as well as this year’s partner society, the truly multidiscipli-

As president of the European Society of Radiology (ESR), it gives me enormous pleasure to welcome you to our society’s scientific meeting, the Euro-pean Congress of Radiology (ECR). I would like to extend a special welcome to the numerous young radiologists joining us in Vienna, especially those visiting for the first time and those who are atten-ding thanks to the support of the Invest in the Youth programme.

This event is the culmination of almost two years of intense planning and hard work, by people who have brought many years of valuable experience to the process. I would like to extend not only my con-gratulations, but my heartfelt thanks, to Prof. Bilbao and to all the members of the planning committees, for assembling a truly exemplary scientific and educational programme, as well as to the talented and dedicated ESR staff who have been involved in putting these plans into action.

I wrote in the ECR 2013 Preliminary Programme that everyone involved in the organisation of our annual meeting was delighted and very proud that abstract submission rose again this year. The res-ponse to the call for paper abstracts in the summer was extremely encouraging, and the continuation of that response via the EPOS submission system has demonstrated that the radiological community con-tinues to hold our congress in high regard.

Speaking of community, being involved in so many different projects in so many different areas of inte-rest over the past year has also brought me into contact with a vast number of committed and hard-working people, who are a great source of encoura-gement for the future of our discipline. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to driving our society forward over the last twelve months. Sadly, one year is far too short to achieve everything we set out to accomplish, but I am satisfied that I can look back on an exciting and very productive period.

Dear colleagues,

The content of the EDiR examination is based on the ESR’s European Training Curriculum, and we are currently in the final stages of updating the cur-riculum to make it both more comprehensive and easier to understand. The new version will describe not only knowledge, but also the skills, competen-ces and attitudes required for each subspecialty at each level of training. One particularly important change is that the key stages will be given new, sim-pler names, to avoid any confusion with previous editions of the curriculum. The first three years of common trunk radiological training will be refer-red to as ‘Level 1’ and the final two years of sub-specialty interest training will be ‘Level 2’. The final document should be completed by the time we meet in Vienna.

Last, but by no means least, the ESR’s publications have continued to provide an exceptionally high level of quality this year. European Radiology has enjoyed an extremely successful six-year period under the editorship of Adrian Dixon, and will soon enter a new phase under a new editor-in-chief, who will be formally announced at the ECR.

With all of these activities and developments in mind, I am very much looking forward to seeing what the next twelve months will bring for the ESR, for our members, and for the world of radiology in general. But first, I am relishing the chance to make the most of the many and varied opportunities offe-red by our annual congress and the wonderful city of Vienna. I sincerely hope each and every one of you will enjoy this event to the very fullest.

Gabriel P. Krestin ESR President

nary European-African Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (E-AHPBA). The opportunity to hear from and get to know the visiting experts from these societies is one that should not be missed.

The ESR Executive Council had a very productive brainstorming meeting in The Hague in June, as well as further meetings in October and Decem-ber. One pleasing outcome of these meetings has been the establishment of a concept introduced by ESR Past-President, András Palkó. The idea was to assemble a pool of young, up-and-coming professi-onals in the field of radiology, whom the Executive Council could call upon for opinions, suggestions and feedback, and who would also gain valuable experience in interacting with the ESR committees and becoming acquainted with the structure and processes of our organisation. This body has been named the ‘Leadership Institute’ and has already proven very valuable as a sounding board.

Some of the ESR’s most important creations have enjoyed a very successful 2012. The European School of Radiology (ESOR), which celebrated its fifth anniversary at ECR 2012 has gone from strength to strength under the stewardship of Nicholas Gourtsoyiannis, welcoming an ever incre-asing number of students and fellows into its many courses and programmes. The European Institute for Biomedical Imaging Research (EIBIR) has also flourished during its sixth year, attracting vital fun-ding for research and coordinating various projects under the European Commission’s 7th Framework Programme. Two major projects, peddose.net and HAMAM, have been successfully completed this year and a number of others are still in progress. At the same time, the European Board of Radiology (EBR), in its second year of existence, has become firmly established as a recognised body for radio-logical certification and accreditation in Europe. The increasing profile of the European Diploma in Radiology (EDiR) and its acceptance and acknow-ledgment by national, subspecialty and allied scien-ces societies has confirmed the EBR’s legitimacy.

Dear colleagues,

Welcome to ECR2013tastic work in assembling this programme and to the extremely capable team at the ESR Office for all their support. I am honoured to have played a part in the creation and organisation of this congress, and I hope that every one of you will gain just as much pleasure from attending as I will from seeing the carefully laid plans and hard work of so many people come to fruition.

This year’s programme offers many sessions, in many different formats, with the aim of educating and entertaining at the same time. As usual, some of the most successful and popular sessions will be repeated from previous congresses, but plenty of others will be new. The congress is constantly evolving, and the Programme Planning Committee and ESR Office strive tirelessly to stay ahead of the educational needs and demands of radiologists and radiographers.

Categorical Courses are the heart of our pro-gramme, offering the deepest exploration of any topics at the congress. At ECR 2013 there will be three of these courses: ‘Never without Arteries’ will be this year’s contribution to the recently initiated ‘Clinical Lessons for Imaging Core Knowledge – CLICK’ series; ‘Oncologic Imaging: Follow-up of Systemic and Local Therapies’ will summarise the most recent information about how responses to therapy should be evaluated in most oncologic situa-tions; and ‘Urogenital Imaging’ will be a continuation of the ECR 2012 session, covering the latest topics.

The programme is always prepared with a strong emphasis on interaction, since the exchange of ideas is a major way to teach and learn. This year the suc-cessful ‘E3 – European Excellence in Education’ will include fourteen 90-minute sessions, which will cover all the major aspects of radiology, with attractive titles such as ‘tips and tricks’ and ‘pitfalls’. The Foundation Course will deal with neuroima-ging and, as in previous years, will be followed by a self-assessment test. There will also be two practical courses on how to ‘Update your Skills’, which will

It is a great pleasure and a privilege to welcome you to Vienna for the European Congress of Radiology (ECR), the annual meeting of the world’s largest radiological society. The ECR has become one of the most keenly anticipated medical conferences over the last two decades, not only as a place to come and learn about the scientific, medical and professional issues of the day, but to meet our colleagues from throughout the world of imaging, to exchange opi-nions, experience, and knowledge, and to enjoy the inimitable atmosphere of the ECR and its home city, Vienna.

I would especially like to address this welcome to our younger attendees, who have been appearing at our congress in increasing numbers in recent years. It is enormously encouraging to see that new generations are not only developing an interest in radiology and radiography, but that they are com-mitted enough to make the trip to Vienna for what may well be the most inspiring experience of their early careers. I am also personally delighted that we, as a society, are able to make this trip a reality for several thousand young people by providing sup-port through the Invest in the Youth programme. Thanks to this very valuable initiative, as well as free registration for all students, I am looking forward to seeing many budding radiologists and radiogra-phers at the Austria Center this year.

Each ECR is different from the last; each has its own unique character and there are always innovations that make each congress stand out from its prede-cessors. But just as important as these differences are those factors that always remain: the vision and talent that we find within our community and the enduring appeal of radiological science. This is what makes the quality of our scientific and educa-tional programme so exceptionally high, bringing thousands of visitors, who are committed to radio-logy and self-improvement, from all over the world to Vienna each year. On this note, I would like to offer my sincerest thanks to every member of the Programme Planning Committee for their fan-

Welcome to ECR2013As well as these few highlights I have mentioned, you will have the opportunity to attend Refresher Courses, Mini Courses, and State-of-the-Art Sym-posia; learn more about the most recent develop-ments in New Horizons Sessions; look into a wide variety of topics in Special Focus Sessions; and hear about how to tackle some of our greatest issues in Professional Challenges Session. You will also have the chance to explore a technical exhibition of more than 26,000m2 in size, and discover the latest products and imaging-related services from around 300 exhibiting companies from all over the world. And if this is not enough stimulation for you, we are lucky enough to be based in one of the most amazing cities in the world, boasting so much in the way of art, culture, cuisine and entertainment that is hard to know where to begin.

Exactly how to arrange your schedule at the ECR is often the biggest problem, but however you divide your time, you can always be certain that it will be well spent. I look forward to sharing the experience with you and wish you all a wonderful congress.

José Ignacio Bilbao ECR 2013 Congress President

provide interactive demonstrations and opportuni-ties for hands-on experience on ‘How to biopsy’ and ‘How to ablate’.

Like interaction, multidisciplinarity has become one of those words that appear in every conversa-tion about the ECR. This principle is an increasingly important influence on our work and so it is only natural that we try to reflect this at our congress. The ECR 2013 programme includes three Multidisci-plinary Sessions that will show how experts from different disciplines within the same institution, interact and decide on the best way to approach specific clinical situations. In addition, it is my ple-asure to welcome the European-African Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (E-AHPBA), a truly multidisciplinary organisation, to the ECR. They will join us as the partner discipline in the ‘ESR Meets’ programme, and I am personally looking forward to strengthening our relationship with this association, from whom I believe we will learn a great deal, in terms of both science and professional cooperation.

Once again, the ESR has invited three countries to share their expertise through the ‘ESR Meets’ pro-gramme. Chile, South Africa, and Spain will pre-sent their most recent scientific developments in joint sessions and bring some international flavour to the entrance hall. For the first time, we will have a new session entitled ‘EFRS meets’, hosted by the European Federation of Radiographers Societies, reflecting the fact that the EFRS recently chose the ECR to be their official annual meeting. They have chosen to invite Spain as their first guest, and I am pleased to report that a great many Spanish radio-graphers have chosen to make their way to Vienna for this occasion. We are of course delighted to offer the EFRS this platform and we look forward to buil-ding even closer relations between our societies and our professions.

CME at ECR 2013

UEMSThe ESR – European Society of Radiology is accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Educa-tion (EACCME) to provide the following CME activity for medi-cal specialists. The EACCME is an institution of the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS).The ECR 2013 is designated for a maximum of 27 hours of European external CME credits. Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the educational activity. European Accreditation is granted by the EACCME in order to allow participants to validate the credits obtained at this activity in their home European Country.

USADue to an agreement of mutual recognition the American Medical Association (AMA) will convert European continuing medical education (CME) credits to AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. For further information about the conversion of European credits into AMA PRA Category 1 credits, please contact the AMA at [email protected] or visit the AMA website.

WorldwideCME claimed at the ECR are accepted by almost all national CME authorities worldwide.

CME Acquisition ProcedureCME (continuing medical education) credits will only be awarded, if• the questionnaire provided at the entrance of each session is

fully completed,• your unique personal CME sticker, which you will receive

together with your badge, is affixed,• and the form is dropped into the provided box immediately

after the relevant scientific session.• The combined participation and evaluation questionnaire

considerably helps the next organising committee to select subjects for future ECRs. Evaluation sheets differ depending on the types of the scientific event.

• Please note that confirmation of any additional attendance of the scientific programme, for which you have not submitted an evaluation form during the congress, cannot be claimed at a later date as late requests cannot be processed and can thus not be included in your record of attendance.

GuidanceConfirmation of participation in the scientific programme is to be obtained as follows:

Scientific Sessions 1. Participate in the event of your interest.2. Personalise the relevant questionnaire (evaluation form) using

your CME sticker, since otherwise it is not possible to sort out the forms afterwards and to provide confirmation.

3. Fill in this form completely during the session.4. Drop the completed form into the box provided at the exit of

the room when leaving the session.

General InformationEach ECR delegate receives confirmation of all activities attended (CME confirmation – Record of attendance). The approximate maximum number of hours of scientific activity attendance is 40 (please note that this number differs from the maximum number of UEMS/EACCME credits).

EURORAD – Radiological Case Database

The largest peer-reviewed teaching database of radiology on the internet offers free access to a wealth of medical informa-tion and imaging data, whose accuracy and quality have been validated by some of the most experienced radiologists in Europe. Submitting to and publishing in EURORAD is an exclusive benefit of ESR membership.

EURORAD contains case reports for medical students (simple cases), residents in radiology (everyday cases) and senior radi-ologists (complex cases) in all radiological specialties.

For easy retrieval of required cases, the website offers a power-ful search engine as well as multi-lingual navigation (English / Spanish / French). EURORAD allows you to download, save, and print the cases as PDF documents, or e-mail them via the web-based e-mail client. All EURORAD cases are registered with a unique DOI (Digital Object Identifier), which makes all cases citable.

ECR 2013 SPECIAL EXHIBITION

H. and B. VogelInstitut für Rechtsmedizin

U. HennigDeutsches Röntgen-Museum

A notably popular feature at the European Congress of Radiology is the special exhibition, initiated and compiled by Prof. Hermann Vogel from Hamburg, Germany, in cooperation with the Deutsches Röntgenmuseum, which has been part of the annual meeting for years. This year’s exhibit is entitled: X-Rays: Evidence and Threat.

This year’s exhibition covers a wide variety of instances where imaging has been used, from the outlandish to the downright gruesome. It includes images of injuries sustained from terrorist attacks, accidents and torture. It also demonstrates how imaging has been used to detect drugs and explosives hidden inside the human body, as well as some other more benign cosmetic implants.

This exhibition provides a unique insight into the physical aftermath of many tragic incidents while also delving into some non-medical imaging applications. It promises to be an eye-opening experience for all.

Prof. Hermann Vogel is head physician at the Albers-Schönberg-Institute, the department of radiology at St. Georg Hospital in Hamburg. The new exhibition, which will be shown for the first time at ECR 2013, again features more than 20 posters with partly provocative images.

The exhibition is presented on the 2nd level of the congress venue next to the EPOS Area.

Broaden your horizons with Free Publications at ECR 2013

The Free Publications initiative will run for the seventh consecu-tive year after attracting increasing levels of attention at ECR 2012. The Free Publications booth will be located on the second level of the ACV next to the EPOS Area. The booth will be richly stocked with a galaxy of fascinating reading material from many of our associated organisations and publishing houses from around the world, such as Globetech, Diagnostic Imaging, MindByte and European Hospital.In addition to a broad library of print media, internet terminals will also be installed nearby, providing access to a wide variety of online publications.About 20 publishers will provide more than 30 different titles for this initiative, ranging from copies of the ESR’s flagship journals European Radiology and Insights into Imaging, to issues from as far afield as Lebanon, many of which will also be available online. Interested delegates can peruse La Radiologia Medica, pick up a copy of International Hospital and browse the online Imaging Management, among others. It is a rare chance to learn from so many diverse medical imaging communities from around the globe, and in this case it is something you can take away with you, with free bags provided to help you make the very best of the opportunity. We are of course enormously grateful for the enthusiasm of our friends in the publishing industry for making the Free Publica-tions initiative possible, and allowing us to provide ECR partici-pants with the chance to pick up some literature and broaden their medical imaging horizons.

Chairman: C.D. Claussen; Tübingen/DE

Moderator: W. Wagner; Vienna/AT The aim of this session is to initiate an open and frank discussion among different stakeholders about the current role of the radiologist in relation to the patient, other clinicians and the public. Which procedures are efficient? Which are inefficient? What should be changed in future and what is manageable during clinical routine? As the participants represent various disciplines, we hope to come to a realistic outlook.

Chairman: A. Graser; Munich/DECo-chairmen: M. D’Anastasi; Munich/DE

F. Schwarz; Munich/DE

After the great success in the last years, ECR 2013 will, for the sixth time, feature a ‘Workstation Face-Off ’ session. Continuous rapid technical advances in CT require state-of-the-art post-processing tools and workstations. Currently, most solutions are based on a thin client-server architecture which significantly speeds up loading times and workflow.

In the 21st century, radiologists are required to interpret 3D data-sets and to handle very large data volumes. For several clinical applications, dedicated post-processing workflows are now avail-able. All major vendors offer a variety of hardware and software, and it is often difficult to recognise the individual strengths and weaknesses of different systems. Our 6th annual Post-Process-ing Face-Off Session will allow you to get an impression of the 3D capabilities and large data volume handling provided by the latest workstation technology.

Several workstations from different vendors (aycan, GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Siemens, TeraRecon, Vital Images) will be set up on stage next to each other, and two cases provided by the ESR will be demonstrated by expert users. This year, one of the cases is a cardiac case involving CTA of the coronary arteries and functional MRI with rest and stress perfusion imaging. The second case will be an oncology patient with a metastasised malignant melanoma. Tasks will include detection of lung nodules with CAD and segmentation of lesions over time assessing response.

The aim of this session is to simulate a realistic ‘reading room’ atmosphere and to give an impression of how different worksta-tions perform in a clinical scenario. We cordially invite you to attend this exciting ‘tournament’ of post-processing.

This practical course teaches participants the fundamentals of US-guided biopsy. US-guided biopsy is faster, less invasive and less expensive than surgical biopsy and technically less demand-ing compared to CT und MR guidance. Tissue acquisition is performed with aspiration needles and/or automated large-core needles and biopsy guns. The choice of the needle depends on the lesion type as well as the pre-test probability of a specific malignancy. This practical course reviews indications, patient preparation, techniques, material preparation and contraindica-tions of US-guided biopsy.Participants will work on phantoms to learn the device-related technical aspects of the performance, how to prepare the patient and percutaneous biopsy device, and how to adequately approach a lesion. State-of-the-art equipment, including different auto-mated large core needles and/or guns will be available. The practical training courses are organised to allow time for each participant to perform interventions under expert supervision.It is recommended to follow the introductory lectures before entering the practical training courses.

Learning objectives1. To know the indications and contraindications and the tech-

nical requirements to perform US-guided biopsy procedures.2. To know requirements for patient preparation, selection of

material and specimen preparation for optimal results as well as management of complications.

3. To become familiar with the handling of needles, scan-heads and biopsy guns.

RegistrationThe number of participants for each course is limited.Pre-registration has been arranged according to the order in which applications were received.
