The ESMI succeed in showing the advantage of translational networking by bringing together physicists, technologists, physicians, biologists, and chemists; as well as by the close organisational collaboration with EU funded network-projects "DiMI– Diagnostic Molecular Imaging” as well as “Clinigene – Clinical Gene and Cell Therapy” and the “European Society for Radiology – ESR”. The meeting was also supported through “COST Actions – European Cooperation in Science and Technology”.
