About Us

The South African Musculoskeletal Imaging Group is a subspeciality division of the Radiological Society of South Africa formed with the following aims:

To promote interaction between clinicians involved in musculoskeletal imaging , enabling sharing of ideas and experience and thus growth of the subspeciality .
