摘要

The 18th Annual Congress of the ESSR was hosted in Greece, on the beautiful island of Crete, 9-11 June 2011, with nearly 500 registrants present. The congress president was Prof Apostolos Karantanas. The meeting followed the same format as previous years with a musculoskeletal ultrasound course on the first day. The remaining 2 days of the meeting comprised the refresher course which concentrated on the topic of bone marrow disorders, with further focus sessions including arthritis, intervention, sports imaging, tumours and advances in MSK imaging. Fifty papers were accepted for presentation in the scientific sessions, with a further 77 papers accepted for the electronic poster exhibition. The abstracts for the scientific papers were published in the June 2011 edition of Skeletal Radiology [1]. This article summarises the highlights of the scientific program.
