8th Baltic Congress of Radiology

Dear Colleagues,

What a journey! The 8th Baltic Congress of Radiology was successfully held in Estonia, the golden autumn welcomed our participants at the beautiful city of Tallinn from the 6th to the 8th of October, 2022.

I must say that organizing such a wonderful event was a real pleasure and also a valuable experience - 720 participants from 16 different countries, 150 scientific presentations in 5 parallel sessions, 140 lecturers, preschool of the congress with 200 participants and memorable social events taking place in Culture Hub (KultuuriKatel) and Seaplane Harbour (Eesti Meremuuseum). So many great memories and inspiring meetings!
I am thankful and very proud of our whole team - local and international organisatory and scientific committees - from the Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian Radiology Societies, Baltic Radiographers Societies, Nuclear Medicine Societies and Vascular Workshop Day team. Together we stand strong and keep the tradition of the Baltic Congress of Radiology! We were also honoured to stand together with our colleagues from Ukraine (Tetyana Yalynska).
I am grateful to all of our partners from the industry - Your contribution was remarkable and the presence at the wonderful venue of Culture Hub exposition halls gave the event a vibrant buzz full of innovation.
I am still amazed by all the inspiring talks from our speakers all over the world. As one of our key-note speakers from the United States, prof Liina Põder said “Looking at the young radiologists and all the presentations they gave - the future looks bright for the Baltic radiology”.
Eesti Filharmoonia Kammerkoor / Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir and maestro Tõnu Kaljuste set the tone at the opening ceremony and the inspiring power from the music carried on to all the participants.
As Martin Villig from Bolt stated in his plenary lecture - dare to dream big and do not give up at obstacles, this is the way to change the world!
