Venue:

The British Institute of Radiology (BIR) is the oldest radiological society in the world. The origins of the BIR can be traced back to a first meeting held on 2 April 1897 to form "The X-ray Society".

The British Institute of Radiology is an independent multidisciplinary organisation and a registered charity, whose membership is open to everyone with an interest in radiology and radiation oncology. All our members are equal regardless of profession or grade.

We strive to ensure that the potential of image science and radiation technology to prevent, detect and combat disease is fully realised. We believe in the importance of research and education, and we promote collaboration and the sharing of knowledge and understanding.
To help fulfil our aims we undertake a wide range of activities, including publishing, the organisation of scientific meetings and conferences, and the provision of information services.
