Dr. Elias Zerhouni, the well-known U.S. radiologist and former director of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, will give a lecture on "Great Trends in Medical Imaging" at this year's Journées Francophones de Radiologie (JFR 2018), to be held in Paris from 12 to 15 October.
Dr. Philippe Charlier, PhD, the French forensic pathologist and physical anthropologist, will give another keynote lecture. He will speak about "Imaging in the Service of History," the French Society of Radiology (SFR) has announced.
The advance program for JFR 2018 is available now. The meeting will focus on "right imaging for a targeted and personalized treatment." Also, JFR President Dr. Anne Cotten has released her president's letter.
"These days represent a privileged moment of exchanges around the latest technological and scientific advances in medical imaging," she wrote. "It is also during these conference days that clinical research, fundamental research, and industrial research mix, inseparable and complementary. This close collaboration is the essential keystone to continue to evolve toward ever-more efficient imaging and therapeutic treatment of the patient."
