SCR'19 — Swiss Congress of Radiology

The SCR is the biggest radiological scientific and educational meeting in Switzerland with an average attendance of over 1,200 professional and industry delegates. It is held every year in a different city in Switzerland.

It is organised by the Scientific Committee of the Swiss Society of Radiology (SGR-SSR), in joint collaboration with the Swiss Society of Nuclear Medicine (SGNM-SSMN) and the Swiss Association of Radiographers (SVMTRA-ASTRM). Moreover, the following associated sub-societies of the SGR-SSR take part at the congress organisation: the Swiss Society of Vascular and Interventional Radiology (SSVIR), the Swiss Society of Radiopharmacy/Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry (SGRRC-SSRCR), the Swiss Society of Emergency Radiology (SSER), the Swiss Society of Musculoskeletal Radiology (SSSR) and the Swiss Society of Paediatric Imaging (SGPR-SSRP). The ISSS as well as SSRMP will also participate to the congress.

The SCR consists of refresher courses, plenary sessions with lectures by national and international speakers as well as scientific sessions with oral abstracts. Moreover, an interesting poster exhibition presents the latest updates in radiology. In addition, many different companies present their latest medical and technical products at a large exhibition. So the SCR is not only a place to listen and learn but also a platform for personal exchange between friends, colleagues and companies.

The SCR is interesting for radiologists, nuclear medicine specialists and radiographers in public and private hospitals as well as in private practice. It also turns to residents, medical students and radiography/nuclear medicine students. The official congress language is English.
