Radiology as a guide for medical Diagnosis and Control of treatments

 By the Year 2018 and our 34th annual congress of Radiology, a growing need for all medical specialties for documented radiology and imaging is anticipated.

The current decade has witnessed a growing tendency towards image fusion like CT-PET, MR-PET, US-CT, US-MR, CT-MR and OCT “optic coherence tomography in combination with laser Light, visual light and B-mode ultrasonography “and etc.

The simple hand radiograph seen on this year's emblem of congress is meant to represent the basic roots of our discipline which has evolved to its current sophisticated status owing to the dedicated and artistic efforts of radiologists as represented by the red rose.

 Iran is home to a wide range of rose varieties and many vast legendary rose gardens in Ghamsar in the city of Kashan. Rosewater is most prominently produced in Kashan and since ancient times in Iran (Persia), rosewater has been used medically, nutritionally  and as a source of perfume.

The main themes of this year's congress are:

• Pediatric radiology and imaging
• Urology radiology and imaging
• Gastrointestinal radiology and imaging
• Musculoskeletal radiology and imaging
