Message from the Desk of President

Abstract

I feel privileged in extending my best wishes to all the clinical and basic researchers, who contributed their abstract for presentation during 46th Annual Conference of the Society of Nuclear Medicine India in Puducherry. With the advent of newer technologies, Nuclear medicine is advancing further to diagnose the inner ailments for proper management. The approach may be surgical, radiotherapy/Chemotherapy and so on. The fusion imaging using PET/CT, PET/MRI, SPECT/CT has a great role, however instrumentation, computerization and development of newer radiopharmaceuticals cannot be ignored as they are equally important. The most important potentiality of human brain is to develop all programs like an artist who visualized for developing his thoughts/inner thinking into a caricature while filling colors into it. This reminds me the understanding of pathophysiology naturally leading to a choice for Optical/Cerenkov luminescence imaging modalities. Now time has come when we should positively convert our research progress into a practical application for masses and definitely communicate the same through our publication in the scientific world. On this occasion, I congratulate all, those who will present their deliberations and also to those, attending various sessions as this will lead to a healthy discussion for betterment of Nuclear Medicine community. Financial support and sponsorship Nil. Conflicts of interest There are no conflicts of interest.
