Image Guided Surgery

Vahrmeijer Lab widely represented at the World Molecular Imaging Congress 2019 in Montreal

Starting on Wednesday September 4th, this year’s World Molecular Imaging Congress (WMIC) will be hosted by the city of Montreal, Canada. With 5 oral presentations and 9 poster presentations the Vahrmeijer Lab is well represented. The meeting’s title ‘the dynamics of life: integrating molecular imaging’ seems a perfect fit for presenting and discussing our new optical imaging agents and methods for surgical navigation. Starting with a lecture from dr. Vahrmeijer and PhD candidate Babs Sibinga Mulder on Wednesday morning’s  Optical Surgical Navigation educational session, this year’s WMIC promises to be the place to visit many interesting presentations in the field of Image-Guided Surgery.
