Prof. Lluís Donoso-Bach, PhD, former president of the European Society of Radiology (ESR), has received an honorary membership from Brazil's Paulista Society of Radiology and Diagnostic Imaging.
Donoso-Bach received the honor at the 49th meeting of the Jornada Paulista de Radiologia last month in São Paulo. The Paulista Society of Radiology and Diagnostic Imaging was founded in 1968 in the city of Jaú, Brazil, and has more than 7,000 associates.
Since 2006, Donoso-Bach has served as chairman of the diagnostic imaging department at the Hospital Clínic of Barcelona in Spain, where he is also a professor of radiology. Early in his career, his research involved abdominal imaging, with a concentration on liver disease. His attention later shifted to digital imaging and the development and implementation of IT in diagnostic radiology.
