Society of Nuclear Medicine professionals explore molecular imaging, present research highlights

RESTON, Va.--Leading molecular/nuclear imaging authorities will discuss future directions and cutting-edge research results at the Society of Nuclear Medicine's 52nd Annual Meeting June 1822 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.

More than 4,000 physicians, technologists, scientists and pharmacists are expected to attend this premier event to hear exceptional lecturers and to take advantage of educational and networking opportunities. This year's speakers are as follows.

  • Sanjiv (Sam) Gambhir, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Molecular Imaging Center at Stanford University, Stanford, Calif., will deliver the June 19 Henry Wagner Lectureship. Gambhir, who is also head of the division of nuclear medicine and professor of radiology and nuclear medicine at Stanford, will focus on the current status of molecular imaging and provide a glimpse into the future of this exciting field.

  • Henry N. Wagner Jr., M.D., director of the division of radiation health sciences at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Md., will once more discuss what's on the horizon for the molecular/nuclear imaging profession during his annual Highlights Lecture on June 22. In the Highlights Lecture, a 28-year tradition, Wagner summarizes current trends in molecular/nuclear imaging and the meeting's significant findings in a 90-minute presentation. Wagner will also announce his pick for the annual Image of the Year, an image that illustrates a direction he sees nuclear medicine heading in a dynamic and ever-expanding field.

  • In the June 21 Cassen Lecture, Angelika Bischof Delaloye, M.D., of the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois in Lausanne, Switzerland, will present the ongoing activities, problems and needs of nuclear medicine on a global scale.

  • Michael D. Devous Sr., Ph.D., professor of radiology radiological sciences and bioengineering and associate director of the Nuclear Medicine Center at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical C
