대한흉부영상의학회 Korean Society of Thoracic Radiology

It is a great honour and an incredible emotion for me to win such a prestigious contest as Weekly Chest cases C for the second consecutive year.
I would like to thank the KSTR for having developed and promoted this original and innovative system for improving the study and the knowledge of thoracic radiology. The idea of the competition, the wide spectrum and the quality of very rare cases presented, the frequency of weekly feedbacks allow even a very qualified panel of partecipants to regularly receive training and to grow professionally.
Let me also address my sincere admiration and professional estimate for all the other competitors! - among them Yun Yun Yeh (my model, the Master) and also Meric Tuzun, Denis Chabassiere and all the others I cannot mention for space reasons. Sometimes I dream with open eyes that we get together and work as "wonder team" in everyday life
Many thanks again

I thank you very much for your continuous effort. You always present interesting diseases, it forces us to give complete differential diagnoses. The clinical data are relevant incomplete( this is really true in our clinical practice). But the comments are to the point and the references are up to date.
The quiz is very stimulating for each participant. These cases are the ideal way to understand the imaging findings of various thoracic diseases .The more we search, the more we learn and the more we are interested in thoracic imaging(If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it).
In recent years there have been major advances in chest imaging. These include significant refinements in previously available techniques such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and the introduction of new techniques into the clinical armamentarium, particularly positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
The KSTR is the best website in the world for us to achieve all these new advances of thoracic imaging. Furthermore ,The quiz of KSTR is an excellent area for us to challenge the typical and atypical imaging about thoracic disease(Creativity is more like a quest for understanding). The answer is always hit heart just as the ending of many Korean teleplay and movie.
Thank you again for everything.
I wish you and your family a Happy New Year 2012

It was my pleasure to join this site with valuable cases and I am really proud to be one of the winners. I thank you very much four your efforts. I thank the editors and the numerous case suppliers.
I think KSTR Weekly Chest Cases is a valuable educational support for all radiologists and a gift from South Korea to the whole world. It is not only a educational event, but also an example of a friendship and sharing. While evaluating these cases I always felt like working together with the friendly people of South Korea.
I wish all participants success in this year from KSTR Weekly Chest Cases.
