What to expect
Moldova faces a growing burden of gastrointestinal (GI) and genitourinary (GU) diseases, including liver disease, colorectal cancer, renal pathologies, and urinary tract disorders. Radiology plays a critical role in early diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow-up of these conditions. However, many radiologists and clinicians lack access to subspecialized, structured training in abdominal imaging.
To enhance the knowledge, interpretative skills, and clinical decision-making of Moldovan radiologists and residents, ESOR is offering a high-level educational program focused on GI and GU radiology, aligned with European standards.
An outstanding European faculty will ensure a high-quality teaching programme, combining lectures and interactive case discussions.
