The Japanese Society of Nuclear Cardiology (JSNC) and the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology (ASNC) have a relationship through a memorandum of understanding (MOU). This April, the MOU was extended for two more years. Based on this MOU, we hold a joint symposium at the JSNC annual meeting early in the summer each year. The theme of the joint symposium this year was "Inflammatory diseases of heart and large vessels". We consider the success of the joint symposium to be the fruit of the close relationship between JSNC and ASNC.
