In memoriam
The ESR Board of Directors and the ESR Staff are deeply saddened by the loss of two renowned personalities in radiology. Prof. Ian Isherwood, former president of the ESR’s forerunner, the European Association of Radiology (EAR), and Prof. Alexander F. Margulis, a long-standing ECR Honorary Member, both passed away earlier this month.
They will be fondly remembered for their contributions to radiology and sorely missed as close friends of the ESR. |
