AOSPR 2020 is Cancelled

Dear Colleagues,

We hope this message finds you and your family well during these very difficult times. Just like all of you, we have been closely monitoring the developments related to the COVID 19 pandemic. This crisis is escalating in various parts of the world including this year’s host country, the Philippines. The enormity of this problem is still unfolding and it is difficult to predict when the situation would be under control.

After careful deliberation, we have decided to CANCEL the 20th AOSPR Congress to be held in Davao City, Philippines on August 20-21, 2020. The health and welfare of the speakers, participants, organizing committee, staff, industry partners, and everyone who will be affected either directly or indirectly by the planned Congress is the primary concern of the organizers.

We have worked very hard for more than two years in preparation for the 20th AOSPR Congress. We thank the leadership of the Philippine College of Radiology (PCR), Philippine Society for Pediatric Radiology (PSPR), and the Philippine College of Radiology – Southern Mindanao Chapter (PSPR) for the hard work and efforts put into the planning for this event. We also wish to thank the list of esteemed local and international Speakers who accepted our invitation and our industry partners for their support. Similarly, the Philippine organizing team wishes to thank the AOSPR Board for their continuing guidance. We certainly hope that we will still be able to pursue this Congress in the Philippines some other time.

We wish everyone to be safe and well.

Sincerely,

Anna Jane Arcayera, MD
President, PCR-SMC

Maria Theresa Sanchez, MD
Incoming President, PCR-SMC

Prof. Bernard F. Laya, MD
President, PSPR

Maria Lourdes B. Lacanilao, MD
