International Imaging Symposium 2017


Event Overview

Toshiba Medical welcomes you to attend our annual International Imaging Symposium 2017 on June 9-10th. CT and MR will have the spotlight at this year’s event in celebration of 10 Years of Area Detector CT medical imaging, in addition to our advancements in MR technologies.

This comprehensive 2-day program will explore a wide range of clinical topics from Abdominal Assessment to MSK to Vascular disease from the perspective of radiologists, technologists and physicists. A faculty of renowned guest speakers from North America and around the world will be sharing the latest advances and techniques in both modalities.

At this year’s International Imaging Symposium, you will see the efforts of our Made for Life philosophy come to life. Our theme for 2017 is “Together we transform diagnostic imaging, CT-MR.” All sessions are eligible for Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits.
