37th Annual Congress of the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM)

37th Annual Congress of the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM) is organized by European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM) and will be held from Oct 19 - 23, 2024 at CCH - Congress Center Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany.

Description:
This year, once again, we will be able to exchange and discuss the latest theranostic advances, the most impactful clinical evidence, the most recently developed radiopharmaceuticals, and the most novel imaging and detection technologies. This is only possible because you send your most exciting works, your most original ideas, and your most accomplished results to the congress team, and I thank you once again for it.

This year, we will highlight with renewed emphasis our partnerships with clinical societies, with whom we work hand in hand to ensure that all patients can benefit from a timely diagnosis and an effective treatment.

We focus specifically on facilitating interactions and exchanges across disciplines, competences, and generations. Indeed, in my vision, one central mission of the EANM’s annual congress is to motivate and inspire the youngest members of our community, who will be shaping the future of our field. The only everlasting element in our discipline is change, making adaption essential to guarantee our continued success. This can only be achieved with the contribution and active involvement of younger specialists and collaborators, who will bring our developments and advances forward. New communications technologies also play a pivotal role in knowledge sharing. This is why the online material will be made accessible during and after the congress, to reach the largest possible audience.

Every year, the Technologists Committee focus on constructing a full multidimensional programme dedicated to Nuclear Medicine Technologists – the Technologists’ Track. This initiative brings together interdisciplinary professionals, covers several aspects of the field’s developments, and ultimately consists of presenting the most relevant content in accordance with the most recent scientific reports.

Several topics will be discussed over this year’s Technologists’ Track. These, among many others, include whole-body multimodality imaging principles, PET-CT in oncologic diseases’ staging applications, radio-guided surgery, brain PET studies, as well as recent advancements regarding artificial intelligence and radiomics. One of the most relevant aspects of healthcare will also be discussed: patient advocacy. Furthermore, an opening session dedicated to the launch of our yearly publication, the Technologists’ Guide, is being prepared.
