Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is my great honour to welcome you in Lisbon for the next European Society of Neuroradiology (ESNR) Annual meeting.

This meeting will provide an excellent learning experience and the opportunity to be and work together. The annual meeting and advanced course programmes are designed to address a wide range of topics from different neuroradiology diagnostic and interventional fields and for different levels of expertise.

Individualized and precision neuroimaging will be the main topic of the advanced course. The pre-congress course will address value-based neuroimaging and imaging department management. The use of advanced individualized neuroimaging together with the artificial intelligence tools will allow better clinical outcomes and higher levels of medicine-based value standards. We have gathered a faculty of several distinguished speakers, from all around the world, to provide a comprehensive programme that will cover the most important modern neuroimaging topics and latest innovations in diagnostic and interventional neuroradiology. It was also designed to accommodate a larger number of scientific presentations for better knowledge exchange and active participation of all. In this meeting we will have a task force for the young neuroradiologists. There will be a dedicated room with a program suggested by young Neuroradiologists.

This year we welcome Greece! The ESNR meets Greece with a special session devoted to Greek Neuroradiology. It is also our intention to take this opportunity to show to all participants of the congress, some of the Portuguese traditions, culture, art and history.

We have chosen a splendid venue to host the annual meeting. It is located at one of the most beautiful Lisbon areas, at the Tagus riverside, close to important world heritage monuments and with a spectacular landscape scenario. It is also a very wide space with large rooms having all the conditions to hold the meeting safely. Lisbon is recognized by the hospitality, safety, authenticity, multicultural atmosphere, intermixing old customs, ancient history, heritage monuments, new architecture, cultural and social entertainments.

We warmly welcome you in Lisbon; one of the most beautiful historical European cities with an important heritage that you will enjoy discovering.

We hope that you will join us in this annual meeting.
Let’s bring the Neuroradiology community back together in Lisbon!

Dr. Pedro Vilela
President of the 45^th ESNR ANNUAL MEETING
