President's Welcome Note - SPIN Dubai 2025

It is a profound privilege to serve as President of the SPIN Neuroradiology Society, a vibrant global community united in advancing the field of pediatric neuroradiology. Building upon the society’s strong foundation and collaborative spirit, I am honored to lead our efforts in fostering innovation, education, and excellence.

I extend my deepest gratitude to Dr. Kish Mankad for his exemplary leadership and vision, which have been instrumental in shaping SPIN’s growth. The resounding success of SPIN2024 in Goa underscored our shared commitment to high-quality education, insightful discourse, and meaningful connections within our specialty.

As we look ahead, SPIN2025 in Dubai, held in collaboration with the Radiological Society of the Emirates (RSE), represents an exciting milestone and extend a warm welcome to learners. By bringing this premier event to the United Arab Emirates, we aim to broaden regional participation, facilitate knowledge exchange, and strengthen partnerships across borders.

Education remains at the heart of SPIN’s mission. We are dedicated to expanding our web-based learning platforms, fellowship programs, and hands-on training opportunities to nurture the next generation of pediatric neuroradiologists.

None of this would be possible without the unwavering dedication of our members, partners, and organizing team. Thank you for your invaluable contributions. I warmly invite your ideas and engagement as we continue to push boundaries and elevate pediatric neuroradiology together.
With enthusiasm and commitment,

Dr. Özgür Öztekin
President, SPIN Neuroradiology Society
