BSSR 12th Skeletal Radiology Refresher Course Cardiff 18-19 March 2010

On behalf of the BSSR it is a great honour for me to welcome you to Cardiff, Wales to attend the 12th BSSR Refresher Course on 18th and 19th of March 2010. The Closed meeting will be held on Wednesday 17th of March in the City Hall Cardiff.

The meeting will be held at the City Hall in Cardiff and the Conference Dinner on 18th of March will be held at the National Museum.

The refresher course will run in two parallel streams covering a wide range of musculoskeletal imaging topics. There will be a strong orthopaedic clinical input for the sessions on the knee, shoulder, hip and cartilage. The refresher course has been organised into two streams enabling delegates to choose from a wide variety of topics. The aim is to produce a meeting reviewing state of the art musculoskeletal imaging and also to look at emerging musculoskeletal imaging techniques. There will be a hands-on musculoskeletal ultrasound course running in parallel.

Cardiff is a modern European city with strong cultural and sporting traditions. For those seeking a break from the conference the National Museum is at hand with its stunning collection of Impressionist paintings and national treasures. Cardiff Castle with its strong influence from the Marquis of Bute and monies raised from the prosperity of coal mining is again on hand and a real jewel of Burgess architecture. For those with a little more time there is the opportunity to visit the Senedd, the home of the Welsh Assembly Government and the adjacent Wales Millennium Centre the home of the Welsh National Opera.

The BSSR Members Dinner will be held at the Park Plaza on Wednesday 17th March 2010. An allocation of rooms is being held at the hotel for the BSSR. These will need to be booked early to avoid disappointment
