Welcome Message from Organising Chairman

Dr. Sanveer Singh Dhillon

Dear Colleagues, Distinguished Guests, and Friends,

It is with great honour and heartfelt enthusiasm that I welcome you to the Malaysian Society of Interventional Radiology (MYSIR) Annual Scientific Meeting 2026, taking place from 3rd to 4th July 2026 at the Sheraton Johor Bahru.

This year, we gather under the theme “Head to Toe: Fundamentals to Frontiers – Advancing Interventional Practice Beyond the Lumen.” More than a title, it is a shared vision — one that reflects our journey as interventional radiologists: grounded in fundamentals, driven by innovation, and constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible in patient care.

Each year, the Annual Scientific Meeting serves as a vital platform for learning, collaboration, and innovation. Through a comprehensive programme of 2 days, featuring keynote lectures, interactive workshops, and multidisciplinary discussions, we aim to foster meaningful exchanges that will shape the future of IR in our region.

I am especially grateful to our esteemed faculty, both local and international, for sharing their expertise and insights. Their contributions will no doubt enrich our understanding and inspire us to continue pushing boundaries in patient care.

For our members, the MYSIR Annual General Meeting will also take place during the conference, a key opportunity to chart the direction of our society together.

This meeting is the result of passion, teamwork, and countless hours behind the scenes. I extend my sincere gratitude to the Scientific Committee, sponsors, partners, and dedicated volunteers whose commitment has turned this vision into reality.

I hope this year’s meeting will not only deepen your knowledge but also reignite your passion for advancing the art and science of Interventional Radiology. May it be a time of learning, inspiration, and lasting connection.

Welcome Message from Scientific Co-Chairperson

Dr. Isa Azzaki Zainal

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is with great pleasure and anticipation that I welcome you to the Malaysian Society of Interventional Radiology (MYSIR) Annual Scientific Meeting 2026, held from 3rd to 4th July 2026 at the Sheraton Johor Bahru. Guided by this year’s theme, “Head to Toe: Fundamentals to Frontiers – Advancing Interventional Practice Beyond the Lumen,” the scientific programme has been thoughtfully curated to reflect both where we stand today and where the future of Interventional Radiology is heading. 

As Scientific Co-Chairperson, I am delighted to share that the programme has been crafted to engage participants across all levels of experience. This meeting will commence with a Clinical Intervention Innovation Suite, offering hands-on learning and practical insights that translate directly into daily clinical practice. Over the main scientfiic days, participants can look forward to two concurrent tracks, featuring sessions that span core IR topics, evolving techniques, and contemporary challenges in our field.

This year also marks the introduction of several new and distinctive sessions, created to spark dialogue, encourage interaction, and reimagine how we learn together. These sessions aim to challenge conventional formats, foster meaningful connections, and add a fresh, dynamic layer to the scientific experience.

We are honoured to welcome an outstanding faculty of local and international experts, whose depth of knowledge and clinical experience will anchor the programme. Through lectures, discussions, and shared perspectives, we hope to cultivate an environment where ideas flow freely and innovation finds its footing.

Whether you are an experienced interventionalist or at the beginning of your IR journey, I encourage you to immerse yourself fully in the sessions, engage with colleagues, and take part in the conversations that will shape the future of our specialty.

I look forward to welcoming you to Johor Bahru for what promises to be a stimulating, inspiring, and forward-looking scientific meeting.

Welcome Message from Scientific Co-Chairperson

Dr. Zakhirati Zainol Abidin

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Welcome to the Malaysian Society of Interventional Radiology (MYSIR) Annual Scientific Meeting 2026, held on 3–4 July 2026 at Sheraton Johor Bahru.

This year’s theme, “Head to Toe: Fundamentals to Frontiers — Advancing Interventional Practice Beyond the Lumen,” reflects how broad and fast-moving our field has become. From the fundamentals that guide everyday practice to the new techniques and ideas shaping where IR is heading, the programme aims to cover the full spectrum.

Over the two days, we hope to offer sessions that are practical, thought-provoking, and relevant to daily clinical work. Alongside updates in techniques and technology, the meeting is also an opportunity to reflect on how our specialty continues to grow and where it may go next.

We are grateful to our local and international faculty for sharing their expertise, and we hope this meeting provides a good space to learn, exchange ideas, and reconnect with colleagues in the IR community.

I look forward to welcoming you to MYSIR ASM 2026.
