Dear Friends and Colleagues,

It is a great pleasure to announce that the 2023 European Course in Paediatric Radiology on Abdominal Imaging will take place in Milano, Italy, on 27 – 29 September.

It will be a practice-focused course, with interactive sessions and a mainly case-based approach, spanning from the basics up to the most advanced aspects of paediatric abdominal radiology.

ECPR 2023 will be the third course of the 3-year Paediatric Radiology Educational Curriculum and will allow to sit an exam at the end of the course, as one of the steps towards acquiring the European Diploma in Paediatric Radiology (EDiPR).

Educational grants provided by the European Society of Paediatric Radiology will be available for radiologists in training and young radiologists active in the field of paediatric radiology after successful application.

ECPR 2023 will be a hybrid course, both onsite and online, but we hope that most of you will be able to come and meet our great speakers and ask your questions in person, visit this charming part of Italy, and enjoy fantastic food!

Looking forward to seeing you in Milano,
