Announcement: Meeting of radiologists and oncologists of South East Europe to be organized by the Clinical Centre of Montenegro on 7-8 September in Podgorica

SEE Meeting on South East European Regional Network for Radiotherapy and Oncology, organized by the Clinical Centre of Montenegro in cooperation with the Ministry of Science, will take place on 7-8 September 2018, at the Verde Complex Hotel (Donja Gorica) in Podgorica. The topic of the meeting, which will be attended by the directors of the oncology centres from the countries of the region, will be the establishment of a network of radiologists and oncologists, which is one of the stages in the further development of the project of the South-East Europe International Institute for Sustainable Technologies.

In the introductory part of the conference, the attendees will be addressed by the Minister of Health, Dr. Kenan Hrapović, the Director of the Clinical Centre, Dr. Jevto Eraković, who will talk about the Telemedicine project, and the Minister of Science, Dr. Sanja Damjanović, who will reflect on the SEEIIST project.

The clinical network will allow radiologists and oncologists throughout the region to interact and establish contacts with colleagues in the Institute, as well as in other renowned European centres and hospitals, which will result in new protocols and comparative clinical trials. Furthermore, it should facilitate the consultation of physicians and the work of the oncology consulting bodies.

The establishment of the clinical network is particularly important in the context of the establishment of the International Institute, i.e. Hadron cancer therapy with biomedical research, while the very concept of the “Western Balkan Regional Network for Radiotherapy and Oncology” has recently been nominated within the framework of the Multi-beneficiary IPA 2019.
