About NordTer
AIM
The aim of this society – Nordic Forum for Trauma and Emergency Radiology – is to promote and develop Trauma and Emergency radiology collaboration and discussion in the Nordic countries. In a time of subspecialties, we also feel the need to focus on the subject of emergency radiology.
HISTORY
NordTer has organized Nordic courses in Trauma and Emergency Radiology since 2000. This educational initiative builds upon the broader movement established by The American Society of Emergency Radiology (ASER), which was founded in 1988 by radiologists committed to improving imaging care for emergency patients.
In May 2000 the 1st Nordic Course in Trauma Radiology, was held at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm. The course was organized by Drs. Bertil Leidner and Mats Beckman. In January 2003 a society for both Trauma and Emergency radiology with participation from the Nordic countries was established – Nordic Forum for Trauma and Emergency Radiology (NORDTER).
COURSES
The first Nordic Trauma radiology courses were biennial. Since 2007, Emergency and Trauma radiology courses have been arranged every other year respectively. Over the years, the course faculty has incorporated experienced Trauma and Emergency radiologists from the Unites States, Europe and the Nordic countries. Syllabus from previous courses can be found on this website.
MEMBERSHIP
The association is open to membership for all physicians regardless of specialty, researchers and all others interested in Trauma and Emergency radiology. The aim is to create a broad forum to exchange knowledge and ideas, to generate educating discussions, and to seek co-operation with other Nordic and International organizations.
