unreferenced date November 2007 Founded in 2005, the European Society of Radiology ESR is dedicated to promoting and coordinating the scientific, philanthropic, intellectual and professional activities of radiology in all European countries. The ESR is based in Vienna , Austria . The ESR was created through the merger of two established societies the European Association of Radiology EAR , a federation of national societies founded in 1962, and the European Congress of Radiology ECR , the organising body of the eponymous congress. The board of directors, the executive council and all executive bodies were carefully composed of the bodies of the two founding societies. The current president of the ESR is Prof. Andr s Palk , from Szeged, Hungary. At the heart of the ESR s activities is the organisation of its annual meeting, the ECR. With more than 20,000 participants from around 100 countries and more than 4,000 scientific papers and exhibits, the ECR has developed into the largest radiological meeting in Europe since it was first held in its new format in September 1991. In addition, the ESR pilots the harmonisation of teaching programmes throughout Europe and has established EIBIR the European Institute for Biomedical Imaging Research. It synchronises teaching activities within and beyond Europe ESOR European School of Radiology , and provides assistance in raising training standards in radiological services throughout the world. In 2011 the society also launched a European Diploma in Radiology, in order to provide an internationally recognised benchmark for radiological knowledge. Finally, the society produces teaching material, regular electronic and print newsletters, and the scientific journals European Radiology and Insights into Imaging .

The effective dose in radiology is the expected incidental radiation dose to part of the body or tissue, as the result of a standard successful imaging procedure, which will have the same effective risk or danger to the whole organism or whole body as the same equivalent dose of radiation to the whole body.

Founded in 1967, the European Congress of Radiology was first held every four years in different locations. However, the idea of developing a new type of congress became more intensively discussed as the quadrennial basis and the ever changing location did not allow for the creation of a consistent group of experienced radiologist s responsible for the preparation of the congress. Furthermore, the radiological community in Europe wanted to create a common platform for European radiologists. In 1985, a committee chaired by Prof. Dr. Josef Lissner from Munich Germany was established to re organise the Congress. They decided that it should take place every two years and that the location should not change. Vienna was soon selected, due to its geographical location in the heart of Europe. The society Verein Europ ischer R ntgenkongress ECR was founded, and a congress organising institution was established at the Medical Academy of Vienna.
