President's Message

A high standards of clinical Radiology practice is of paramount importance in ensuring early diagnosis, effective and timely intervention in patient management with minimum radiation hazard to the patient.

The SLCR is the premier professional body responsible for the maintenance and improvement of the clinical radiology services in Sri Lanka. In 1985 a small group of enthusiastic and far thinking radiologists established the SLCR and held its inaugural academic sessions in 2002 with the participation of a membership of about fifty radiologists.
