Dear friends and colleagues,

We are very excited to welcome attendees to the RCR’s first global congress in Dubai. Our joint RCR-DHA Faculty of module leads – representing key UK societies and leading senior doctors from around the gulf region and beyond – have developed a world class programme for radiology trainees and junior consultants.

Focusing on the theme ‘Radiology driving innovation’, you’ll be able to advance your professional development with a wide range of workshops, educational sessions and state-of-the-art lectures with leading clinical experts from around the world.

Dr. Kath Halliday
President, The Royal College of Radiologists (RCR)

Dear Respected Delegates,

The DHA’s collaboration with the Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) along with Pan Arab Association of Radiological Societies (PAARS) and the Radiology Society of the Emirates (RSE) for the upcoming “RCR Global Congress 2024” that is taking place for the first time in Dubai, under the theme “Radiology Driving Innovation” will definitely be a valuable contribution and support for us to strive more towards achieving our vision “Towards a healthier and Happier Community.”

Continuous education and skill enhancing based on up-to-date innovative technology will increase our healthcare professional’s competence in delivering a world class service to our community. We are confident enough that this coming RCR Global Congress in Dubai 2024 is going to be an astonishing spot for enriching healthcare professionals’ skills and services with the support of a wide range of workshops, innovative technologies and didactic sessions by expert professionals from various part of the world.

We welcome you all to attend the RCR Global Congress on 19 April 2024 to 21 April 2024. We hope that you will enjoy the conference and look forward to meeting you at the Event Centre – Intercontinental – Festival City – Dubai.

Dr. Wadeia Mohammad Sharief
Director of Medical Education and Research Department
Dubai Health Authority

I was standing on London’s underground train, 3 years ago, when I felt proud seeing a poster of the science museum in London. The sign contained icons symbolizing different museum sections, and a chest x-ray symbolized medicine. It is accurate as internal medicine has taken a significant step in managing disease since the invention of penicillin, the actual science of medicine has entered the stage of modern practice since the creation of the x-ray in 1895.

Indeed, no field of medicine has innovated during the years as radiology has. The introduction of different modalities in the area has improved the understanding of diseases. Even nowadays, artificial intelligence is trending, and it will not impact any field like radiology. It will be challenging to find a reference book in medicine not containing a radiology picture, except for dermatology.

In our conference, we selected the theme of “Radiology Driving Innovation” to remind everyone of the role of innovation in our field and even the role of radiology in innovation in medicine. Radiology should always be a step ahead to provide the best for patients.

About the RCR

The Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) is a charity that works with our members to improve the standard of medical practice across the fields of radiology and oncology. With faculties in two disciplines, the RCR and our members benefit from a fuller understanding of medical practice, across the spectrum of diagnosis and treatment.

We collaborate impartially with our members and external parties from across the medical industry, refining the latest research and guidelines into relevant applications for radiologists and oncologists. This work can be carried out efficiently because resources and processes are shared across our two faculties.

This enables us to educate and support doctors effectively throughout their career, providing practical guidance, training and assessment. In turn, input from our members, through academic contributions, professional consultation and mentorship, drives the RCR forward.
