From the President of ARAWA

Every radiologist toils day in and out to render services that propels our health care towards the desired end. We use several imaging equipment to achieve desirable goals and remain focused in providing excellent health services to our clients. We remain committed in directing clinicians to properly manage patients and intervene using available interventional means.

 

During ARAWA conference, radiologists from several countries gather to interact with each other, sharing intellectual materials which helps improve our practice. The conference holds in different cities cut across West African countries each year. At such conferences interesting researches are presented and a lot are learnt. We also take out time to interact socially and get to know one another as much as possible. These reasons amongst others are the spirit behind ARAWA which we all try to keep alive. This year’s conference will hold in the ancient city of Benin, Edo, Nigeria.

 

The theme for this year is ‘ADVANCES IN TRAUMA IMAGING’. Every year lives are lost or deformity occurs as a result of one form of trauma or the other. The incidence of trauma has increased in several areas in Nigeria, Niger and Cameroon consequent upon recent happenings in these regions. Thus radiologists have to keep abreast with knowledge on trauma management. Consequently we shall invite seasoned speakers and scholars from various disciplines to educate us on managing trauma.
