it is a pleasure for me to provide you, on behalf of the Local Organizing Committee and the Faculty members, a detailed description of the sponsorship possibilities related to the “Update in Musculoskeletal Imaging” meeting, which will be organized in Bruges (Brugge, Belgium), September 11-‐13, 2014. The Organizing Local Committee and the Faculty have created an extensive scientific program, which includes: State-‐of-‐the-‐Art Plenary Sessions on Multimodality Imaging Approach, Clinical Imaging with New Perspectives and Interventional Procedures. A Refresher course will be dedicated to Specific Imaging Techniques and Decision making in Imaging. We are confident that this edition of the Update in Imaging Meeting in Belgium will enjoy a tremendous interest from radiologists from all over Europe and even overseas. The congress facilities in Bruges are very efficient and have been inspected and adapted to the greatest demands, not only for organizing excellent scientific sessions, but also for accommodating all our sponsors in the best possible way. When reading this prospectus I hope that you will find possibilities for your company to involve itself in the “Update in Musculoskeletal Imaging” meeting, as company lectures, vendor workshops and technical exhibits are a vital part of the update in Imaging meetings and we encourage you to take part in this tremendous opportunity. It is evident that I am also very much looking forward to receive reactions, suggestions and proposals from your side because the thoughts and ideas of many people together are always superior to those of one or a couple of individuals. With kindest regards, Yours sincerely, Bart Claikens, President of Update in Medical Imaging Donald Resnick Visiting-‐President
