15th Congress of Asian Society of Cardiovascular Imaging 2022

The Asian Society of Cardiovascular Imaging (ASCI) Congress returned for an outstanding event on 26 June 2022 in Hong Kong after a successful edition more than a decade ago, in 2011. More than 700 participants and 140 speakers from the region and other parts of the world gathered for the exchange online and onsite, covering important topics on imaging and disease modalities.

Under the theme “Cardiac Imaging Beyond The Images”, the 3-day programme, conducted physically at Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre with a virtual congress and virtual and physical exhibition, included lectures, refresher courses, hands-on workshops, symposiums and scientific paper sessions. A special session was created to address pertinent issues related to COVID-19 and heart diseases.

Hong Kong has always been an ideal destination for hosting important medical conventions. I’m proud to bring this significant congress back to the city to drive the advancement of radiology and cardiology. It was so great to have the Hong Kong Tourism Board providing professional one-stop services every step of the way from the bidding stage.
Dr Lilian Leong
Founding President & Immediate Past President,
Hong Kong College of Radiologists
The success of the congress is a strong proof of Hong Kong’s pivotal role as a two-way gateway connecting Mainland China and the world. With a world-leading position in the medical field, Hong Kong is undoubtedly the natural destination choice for the professionals and experts from Mainland China and the world to converge and share views.
Professor Bin Lu
President,
Asian Society of Cardiovascular Imaging
I’m so honoured to be part of the strong alliance of almost 30 leaders from the medical sector in Hong Kong to promote the city as a premier destination for world-class conventions. Working hand-in-hand with the Hong Kong Tourism Board, I’m confident that Hong Kong will attract even more top MICE events in the future.
Dr Ngai-Yin Chan
Immediate Past President,
Hong Kong College of Cardiology
