Our Story
The main goal of the society is to raise the scientific level and professional knowledge within the field of oncologic imaging and has thereby two important missions.
First, the society strives to globally provide high-quality education in cancer imaging and research - not only in countries with but also in those without access to high quality oncological education.
Second, ESOI aims to become an oncologic imaging society that will attract not only radiologists but everyone working in the field of oncology. There is no doubt that for an optimal treatment outcome the input of radiologists in the multidisciplinary approach is crucial.
Furthermore, it will be more important than ever to understand the questions from our oncological clinical partners, which are increasingly complex.
ESOI recognises these needs and strives to create an international platform that will bring together radiologists with clinical professionals such as surgical oncologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists and basic scientists in immunology, genetics, molecular pathology, biotechnology etc.
The ESOI board and I would very much welcome you as our colleague who would like to participate or be involved in ESOI’s activities and contribute to the exciting new developments in oncologic imaging.
