Since its conceptualization in 1999, the teaching seminar became an annual/biannual event of the CT-MRI Society of the Philippines. Its main objective is to render continuing medial education on the basics, advances and current topics in CT and MR imaging, in order to guide medical practitioners in their daily practice. It normally consists of 1-2 days of didactic lectures and interactive workshops done by a faculty of Radiologists who are experts in their respective fields of practice and interest.
With the way the Philippines, especially Luzon, had been in the recent weeks when the storms, Ondoy and Pepeng, inundated the country, the Radiology community had a reason for optimism for holding the months before slated 2009 CT-MRISP Annual Convention pushed through as planned. It just goes to show that life goes on in the face of adversity and that surely, one cannot put a resolute venture down.
The excitement stirred among radiologists by the formal announcement during the latter part of 2008, specifically during the joint annual convention of CT-MRISP and USP, of the venue for the 2009 CT-MRI teaching seminar Workshop, did not wane until this very day – BORACAY ISLAND! And who would not be hyped up by the mere thought of one of the world’s most sought paradise nestled in the Visayas; the sights, sound, sea and sands of Boracay will definitely drift one off of one’s day-to-day care.
It was the joint efforts of Dr. Renato Carlos and Dr. Cesar Co that led to the advent of teaching seminars, which concentrated on a specific organ system at a time. This approach aimed to give radiologists more detailed knowledge of the clinical applications of CT and MRI to specific organs of the body.
The 2008 joint annual convention of the CT-MRI Society of the Philippines (CT-MRISP) and Ultrasound Society of the Philippines (USP) was held on October 9 to 11 at the Hyatt Hotel and Casino Manila. The theme of the convention was “Expanding and Refining our Vision”. Distinguished foreign and local speakers were invited to share their respective fields of specialization.
The joint annual convention of the CT-MRI Society of the Philippines and the Ultrasound Society of the Philippines was held last October 25 to 27 at the Manila Hotel Centennial Hall. The theme of this year’s joint annual convention was “Transcending Borders with Ultrasound, CT and MRI.”
