2022: Malaysian Congress of Radiology (MCOR 2022)

The Malaysian Congress of Radiology (MCOR) was held physically on 7-9 December 2022 at the Ascott Gurney, Penang. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the last physical MCOR was in 2019, held in Kuala Lumpur. The theme for this year’s meeting was ‘Precision Imaging: Beyond Pixels And Positrons’. The programme consisted of plenary lecture, keynote lectures, special interest group focused lectures and special focus sessions conducted by expert international and local speakers, sharing the latest updates developments in the radiology and molecular imaging fields. There were several intensive radiology exam preparation sessions as well for the trainee radiologist.

This conference also provided an opportunity for trainee radiologists and academic radiologists alike to present their research and interesting clinical cases on a national scale. The top abstracts of those submitted were selected for publication in JUMMEC and the top 3 of the oral and poster presentations received prizes during the conference. This special edition is a culmination of the research work of many radiologists and radiology trainees, and much gratitude goes to JUMMEC for making this edition possible.
