Annual congress ESSR & SIMS

We are delighted to announce the upcoming annual congress of the Scientific Society of Musculoskeletal Imaging (SIMS), which will take place in Toulouse in June 2025. This special edition is organized in partnership with the European Society of Musculoskeletal Radiology (ESSR), marking a unique and promising collaboration.

Why Toulouse?

Our partnership with the ESSR provides an opportunity to bring together a larger and more diverse audience. The change of location underscores the importance of this collaboration and the magnitude of the event. Toulouse, with its charm and energy, promises to offer an exceptional setting for our discussions.
