Imaging in Arthritis: A Public Science Lecture

Research, tools and technologies in the diagnosis of joint disease

Exeter is a world renowned centre for research and treatment of joint disease. The Exeter Hip, a hip implant developed through a collaboration between the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital and the University of Exeter, is world’s most widely used hip implant. In 2018, a new community of scientists, clinicians and patients was formed to drive the next generation of life changing advances in joint disease diagnosis and treatment. As part of the official launch, the Imaging Arthritis Consortium are delighted to invite you to attend a public lecture by a consultant radiologist from the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital. Dr Sharief Aboelmagd will provide an engaging insight into the tools and technologies used by radiologists to diagnose joint disease. Dr. Aboelmagd will also give an overview of the cutting edge research that will revolutionise diagnosis and treatment of joint disease in the coming decades.


Event details

The public lecture will be held in the Exeter Phoenix on the evening of Tuesday the 23rd of July. The event is free to attend and includes a drinks reception where all attendees are encouraged to meet and chat with the scientists and clinicians in attendance.
