PCR Fellow a very qualified one a Fellow in CTMRI, Ultrasound the Society of the Philippines and the member of the other societies like PSUCMI but was undermined by at the PBR the Diplomate. Fellows should be highly respected by the other members Dr Johanna Cañal – is an Ethics concern, so it can be addressed there. Dr. Warfe Engracia – inquired why many Bank Accounts Dr. Jerome Gaerlan – already? Dr. Warfe Engracia – Dr. Jerome Gaerlan – explained that it is more prudent to have more Bank accounts because if there is a bank run or something happens the Insurance is only at a particular level; only one (1) Bank Account might be a problem Dr. Emmanuel Almazan – explained the logic of multiple accounts Dr. Warfe Engracia – Dr. Jerome Gaerlan – Dr. Warfe Engracia – Dr. Jerome Gaerlan – Dr. Johanna Cañal – COMELEC report: 410 ballots and of which 397 returned.

B. RESIDENCY TRAINING COUNCIL REPORT By James DC delos Santos, MD

The year 2019 was proven to be another fruitful year for the Residency Training Council (RTC) of the Philippine College of Radiology with a lot of activities not only for the residents and training officers based in the National Capital Region but also for the rest of the country.

There was a total of four scientific meetings that were held for the year with most if not all lectures given by the training officers themselves. One lecture during August was cancelled due to a typhoon and was rescheduled to be joint lecture for the last scientific meeting for the year. Through the kind efforts of Dr. Rafael Tenorio (training officer of Philippine Heart Center) and the residents of PHC, the said scientific meetings were held at the Philippine Heart Center Medical Arts Building Auditorium. The lectures were as follows:

Date System Imaging Lecture Topic Lecturer January 26, Pediatrics/ Physics/ Cranial Ultrasound: The Anna Aggabao, MD 2019 Anatomy/ Radiation Basics protection Research In The Philippine Joanna Marie Choa-Go, MD Radiology Setting Contrast Utilization In CT Marc James DC delos Santos, And MRI MD April 13, 2019 Pulmonary/ Solitary Pulmonary Nodule: Ignacio Valeriano, MD Cardiovascular Update And Evaluation Upper Lobe And Lower Lobe Dondee Jules Mojica, MD Predominant Diseases July 7, 2019 Women’s/ Genitourinary Congenital Anatomic Variants Denver Sapo, MD Of The Kidneys Basics Of Renal Doppler Michael Rico Mesina, MD Ultrasound Essentials Of Mammography Katleya Manlapaz, MD Congenital Anomalies Of The Niňa Ramos, MD Female Genital Tract August 12, Gastrointestinal/ Head And Neck Masses Danlen Masangya, MD 2019 Musculoskeletal/ Ischemic Stroke Maria Kristine Mendoza, MD Neuroradiology/ Head Hemorrhagic Stroke Pedro Danilo Lagamayo, MD and neck Current Trends And Updates Victor Erwin Jocson, MD In Neuroendovascular Interventions Imaging Of The Pancreas Michael Salvador Cabato, MD

For this year, scientific meetings and battle of the brains eliminations were conducted in the different chapters in cooperation with Bayer Philippines with schedule as follows:

Likewise, all the elimination of the battle of the brains (BOB) for the different chapters were spearheaded by the chapter presidents and the RTC chair in choosing the chapter representatives for the national competition which will be held during the second day of the annual convention, February 28, 2020. Last August 31, 2019, BOB elimination was done in Holiday Inn Baguio, with Baguio General Hospital and Medical Center and Ilocos Training Regional Medical Center representing the Northern Luzon Chapter. Again for the third straight year, Dela Salle University Medical Center won the Southern Luzon Chapter eliminations last September 7, 2019 done in DLSU Auditorium. September 21, 2019 was the day when the RTC had its second chance of doing eliminations for Cebu chapter. Representatives of Chong Hua Hospital made up the team that won the eliminations for Cebu Chapter in a competition done in Seda Hotel, Cebu City. September 28, 2019, the RTC also had its second chance of holding eliminations for the 4 training institutions in Iloilo with Western Visayas Medical Center outwitting the rest of the teams. Last October 5, 2019, the team composed of Southern Philippines Medical Center residents were chosen from an elimination round that was conducted in Seda Hotel to represent the Southern Mindanao Chapter. The National Capital Region showcased its best residents with 24 teams competing for five slots in the national competition last November 9, 2019 at the Philippine Heart Center. Philippine Heart Center, Philippine General Hospital, National Kidney and Transplant Institute, St. Luke’s Medical Center (QC) and University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center topped the competition to lead the region to the national competitions.

In addition to these activities, for the third straight year, the training officers and assistant training officers had three training seminars on questionnaire making last May 19, on research formulation and analysis last July 14, and objective based education last November 24.

ANNUAL REPORT By: Irma D. David-Kintanar, MD

Another year had passed since the induction of the founding officers and board of trustees of the PSNHNR. We would like to report the PSNHNR activities for 2019.

1. February 27, 2019, PSNHNR accomplished a well-attended Neuroradiology Workshop given by Dr. Claro B. Ison and organized by the board and officers of PSNHNR during the Annual Convention of the Philippine College of Radiology 2. July 12 to 13, 2019 at Shangri La Makati-The Fort: The PSNHNR ushered the European School of Radiology (ESOR) in the Philippines and tackled focused Neuroradiology topics with group workshops of cases and panel discussion on the current state of Neuroradiology practice in the Philippines and Asia. Together with our Asian neighbors, the participants were enriched with indelible knowledge as stated in the feedback forms. This sold out activity allowed the participants and the mentors to discuss cases in a more interactive method. The course targeted our trainees as the preferred participants and the rest are mentors in their respective training hospitals. ESOR collaboration has now been officially delegated to PCR through the efforts of PSNHNR so that ESOR partnership can now be accessible to all subspecialty societies and chapters of Philippine College of Radiology (PCR). 3. August 18-19, 2019: PSNHNR partnered with the Southern Mindanao Chapter of the Philippine College of Radiology for their Annual Convention at Pinnacle Hotel in Davao City. A well-attended scientific convention from Visayas and Mindanao and some participants coming from Manila. This partnership is true to the aim of PSNHNR to foster collaboration with the existing subspecialty societies and chapters of the Philippine College of Radiology to further strengthen the practice of Neuroradiology in the country. Immediate Priority Plan: PSNHNR has been initially introduced to the members of the Philippine College of Radiology by its board of trustees and officers. We are now establishing ways on how PSNHNR can create platforms so that membership can now be prioritized after the initial scientific, guidelines and policy making endeavors were accomplished. Since membership to the PSNHNR will now be prioritized, PSNHNR will accept and include all members of the Philippine College of Radiology in good standing. Inclusivity is one of the goals of the PSNHNR so that everyone will benefit from the promotion and improvement of our Neuroradiology practice in the Philippines. Kindly, anticipate announcements pertaining to this concern on the ongoing establishment of the PSNHNR official website and social media platforms.

Gratitude Shown in Action: 2019 Year End Feature By: Bernard F. Laya, MD and Mariaem M. Andres, MD

The Philippine Society for Pediatric Radiology (PSPR), welcomed 2019 with a grateful mindset, where our actions were directed towards better serving the medical imaging needs of the Filipino children.

The major thrusts of the Society for 2019 are: 1) Strengthening the Society by increasing membership, 2) Promotion of Pediatric Radiology through quality and high-impact academic activities, 3) Enhancing Pediatric Radiology practice by developing standardized practice guidelines, and 4) International collaboration and positioning.

Strengthening the Society by increasing membership: Induction of 13 new members was held at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City last March 2, 2019 during the 71st PCR Convention. The induction rite was led by PSPR President Dr. Bernard F. Laya along with other PSPR Officers and Board of Directors. A video snippet about the origin of the oldest Radiology Subspecialty practice, which originated in the United States of America, was shown to the audiences, which included radiology consultants and trainees.

Promotion of Pediatric Radiology through academic activities: PSPR works to serve our Filipino children, and in doing so, it is important to enhance the knowledge of radiology practitioners. An adult and pediatric abdominal imaging symposium, a joint activity of the Philippine College of Radiology, PCR - Northern, Central and Southern Luzon Chapters, together with PSPR, was held last June 22, 2019 at Holiday Inn, Baguio City. The leading PSPR members, namely Dr. Bernard F. Laya, Dr. Maricar P. Reyes, Dr. Florence V. Los Baños, Dr. Khristine Grace Pulido-Brillo, and Dr. Joyce D. Komiya shared their knowledge through their lectures in this educational activity.

Enhancing Pediatric Radiology practice through standardized practice guidelines: Dr. Lawrence Estabillo was designated as head of the movement for radiation protection. PSPR has recently been included in the International Alliance of Image Gently. This Alliance provides the most recent knowledge base for Radiology efforts directed to decrease the patient’s radiation dose. As an alliance member, PSPR now has the access to all the most up-to-date international guidelines and protocols that can be validated for use in the local setting. Drs. Allan Serrano and Nathan Concepcion were assigned as co-chairs in the improvement of contrast agent use in children. As of writing, they have already come up with a draft that would be finalized and disseminated in 2020. Similarly, PSPR is also finalizing an imaging practice guideline for radiographic interpretation of children suspected with tuberculosis.

International collaboration and positioning: In addition to PSPR’s inclusion as amongst the world’s alliance member in the Image Gently campaign, the organization is also in the initial process of applying for membership to the World Federation of Pediatric Imaging. PSPR was well represented in the19th annual scientific meeting of Asian and Oceanic Society for Pediatric Radiology (AOSPR) held last September 26-28, 2019 at Dragon City in Seoul, South Korea, where Dr. Laya and Dr. Concepcion were invited as speakers. Dr. Laya delivered a comprehensive lecture on pediatric chest wall imaging, while Dr. Concepcion focused on supratentorial tumors in children. Dr. Joanna Choa-Go, the current fellow-in- training in St. Luke’s Global City Pediatric Radiology Fellowship, won the Silver Award for oral scientific presentation. 39

Another important landmark is that PSPR is a national organization that is now registered with the Philippines’ Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

To cap off 2019, the PSPR members shared a holiday celebration together last December 8, 2019 at Iago’s Restaurant in Quezon City. Good cheers and best wishes were exchanged as each and every one shared joy and gratitude for a year that was.

Executive Assistant: Rudolf Kuhn

Activities 2019 As early as late 2017 and 2018, the Philippine of College of Radiology, Inc, led by their president Dr Jerome Gaerlan, tapped several radiologists engaged in abdominal imaging, namely Dr. Gerardo Silva and Dr. Rosanna Fragante, to lead the establishment of a subspecialty interest group in abdominal imaging. After a series of several planning and consultative meetings held in the preceding months, the Philippine Society of Abdominal Radiology (PSAR) was finally established in 2019. On 3 July 2019, PSAR held its first scientific meeting at the Marco Polo Hotel in Ortigas. Gathering approximately 100 radiologists, the first scientific meeting featured a short lecture on the advances in liver imaging using MRI by renowned liver Italian imaging specialist and author, Prof. Luigi Grazioli. Two cases from our local pool of radiologists were then presented by the National Kidney and Transplant Institute and the St. Luke’s Medical Center. After the dinner symposium, a draft of the by-laws was presented to the general membership for consultation and ratification. Elections were held afterwards for the board of officers of PSAR. The meeting was facilitated by PSAR vice-president elect, Dr. Michael Salvador Cabato. On 16 September 2019, the second scientific and board meeting was held at the Marco Polo Hotel. It featured a short lecture by German radiologist, Dr Gesine Knobloch, who lectured on International Guidelines for HCC Imaging and the Position of Gadoxetic Acid Disodium. Afterwards, the membership and board meeting, led by PSAR president, Dr Gerardo Silva, addressed several vital issues in the establishment of PSAR, such as the inclusivity of PSAR to all FPCR radiologists with an interest and practice focused in abdominal imaging, representation from the various regions, and the involvement of residents and fellows-in-training to kindle their interest in the growing specialty. On 8 October 2019, the first ties with the Asian Society of Abdominal Radiology were established. A short meeting between ASAR secretary general Dr Cher Heng Tan and PSAR, represented by Dr. Rudolf Kuhn, followed at Tan Tock Seng Hospital in Singapore. Group membership of the Philippines to ASAR was discussed. Likewise, the prospect of the Philippines hosting an educational conference of ASAR was opened for the years to come. Future Prospects Plans for the years to come include:  Expansion and inclusive membership of the PSAR in the regions  Co-hosting of educational conference of the European School of Radiology  Closer collaboration with and hosting of Educational Lecture Course by ASAR  Hosting of annual convention or lectures  Inclusion of young abdominal radiologists (residents and fellows-in-training pool)

XI. PHILIPPINE COLLEGE OF RADIOLOGY CODE OF ETHICS

PHILIPPINE COLLEGE OF RADIOLOGY Code of Ethics THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PATIENT Principle One The RADIOLOGIST must respect the right to self-determination and the essential humanity and dignity of every patient. Altruism contributes to the trust that is central to the physician-patient relationship. The RADIOLOGIST shall uphold the dignity and honor of the profession and specialty. 1. Make the well-being of the patient foremost in all interactions, treating patients with compassion and respect. Approach healthcare as a collaboration between the doctor and the patient, respecting patient choices and decisions, even if they are not the decisions you think you would make. 2. Practice the science and art of medicine to the best of your ability, competently and without impairment. 3. When a personal moral judgment or religious belief prevents you from recommending some form of therapy, inform 4. Do not permit considerations of age, disease or disability, creed, ethnic origin, gender, financial situation, nationality, political affiliation, race, sexual orientation, social standing or any other factor affect duty to patient; and should work actively to eliminate discrimination in health care 5. Promote justice in the health care system including the fair distribution and cost- effective use of limited health care resources. 6. Free to choose whom to serve for reasons satisfactory to one’s professional conscience and competence; however, one shall not refuse radiological service primarily for monetary reason or personal convenience 7. Where there are reservations regarding the appropriateness or safety of an investigation, therapy or procedure, communicate and collaborate with the patient, colleagues and referring clinician regarding other options. 8. Your obligation is to preserve life, but, where a cure is not possible, you should assess the risks and benefits of potentially life-prolonging treatments in the context of the patient, the patient’s beliefs and any suffering the patient may experience. Where death is deemed to be imminent and where curative or life-prolonging treatment appears to be futile, do your best to ensure patients die with dignity and comfort. THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PATIENT Principle Two The RADIOLOGIST must not exploit patients. The RADIOLOGIST should be an advocate for their patients or the populations they serve but should not manipulate the system to obtain benefits for them to the disadvantage of others The RADIOLOGIST shall secure maximum benefit for his patient and his hospital/clinic in terms of professional service, safety and clinical expertise. 1. Ensure that the healthcare outcome solely benefits the patient. 2. Financial gain, personal gain or political agendas must not influence or determine patient care. 3. Do not support outcomes designed in the interest of particular bodies or groups if they conflict with the interests of your patient. 4. Do not exploit hope or deliver futile treatment or imaging (too much or too little). 5. Novel treatments and novel uses of existing treatments are only to be undertaken with appropriate oversight.

6. Recognize that there are patients and groups of patients who are prone to exploitation and allow this recognition to inform all of your interactions with your patients. 7. Actively promote good care when systematic issues hinder the provision of normal care and practices. 8. Radiologists should never enter into an arrangement that prohibits the provision of medically necessary care or that requires care at below acceptable standards. 9. If the cost of your component of their care is to be borne by the patient, directly or indirectly, then, as much as possible, make them aware of the fees they will be charged, and of any alternative ways to access that treatment/imaging. 10. Members should clearly and adequately respond to inquiries by patients regarding fees and/or any financial incentive. A radiologist should not participate in a billing arrangement that misleads patients or third-party payers concerning the fees charged by the radiologist. 11. Radiologists shall not divide radiological fees either directly or by any subterfuge with the referring physician THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PATIENT Principle Three The RADIOLOGIST must provide the best attainable and most appropriate care for their patients. 1. Use evidence-based clinical judgment and experience to make recommendations for treatment/ imaging. 2. Practice in a way that is self-aware, conscious of your limitations and be able to refer patients to the most suitable healthcare practitioner depending on expertise and the needs of the patient. 3. Provide balanced and informed advice designed to help patients make judgments and informed decisions about their healthcare. This could include verbal, printed and/or electronic media 4. Promote patient autonomy by making the patient fully aware of the evidence, options, potential risks and the potential benefits as well as the likelihood of each in respect of each treatment/imaging option. Where appropriate, assist patients in obtaining expert advice from relevant specialists in other disciplines where options for treatment/imaging exist. 5. Ensure all diagnostic and therapeutic care is supported by a quality assurance process and a quality improvement program. THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PATIENT Principle Four The RADIOLOGIST must maintain confidentiality of patients and their families. A Radiologist shall not reveal information acquired in confidence as a result of patient – physician relationship unless otherwise required by law. 1. Maintain the patient’s confidentiality, whether related to their medical care or not, even after the patient has, for whatever reason, left your care. 2. Exceptions may include where there is a serious risk to the patient or another person and the breach is necessary to mitigate any such risk or where it is required by law. So long as it does not go against the existing laws 3. Upon request by the patient, make available to the patient and/or another doctor a report of your findings, clinical records and treatment, including all images and reports. 4. You must only access, use and share patient records and data in a manner that is in keeping with current legislation and current modes of medical record provision. 6. Comply with the legal requirements relating to the compilation, ownership and storage of medical records. THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PATIENT Principle Five The RADIOLOGIST must obtain valid consent from their patients before undertaking any procedure or treatment. 1. Consent is a process and must be voluntary, properly informed and the information provided to the patient in such a degree of detail appropriate to the risks, the procedure and the patient’s needs. 2. Consent must be specific to the procedure or treatment. 3. Sufficient time must be given in the circumstances to allow the patient to make an informed decision. 4. Consent can be withdrawn without consequence at any time prior to or during the procedure/ treatment. However, the cost of the materials are to be shouldered by the patient. 5. Patients must have the capacity to consent. If the patient does not have the capacity to consent, seek consent from the appropriate person(s) with the power to make decisions relating to the patient’s medical treatment (e.g. enduring

guardian, enduring power of attorney (medical treatment), guardian appointed by a guardianship tribunal or from a guardianship tribunal). 7. Understand the legislation and guidelines on informed consent. THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PATIENT Principle Six The RADIOLOGIST must not misuse their professional knowledge and skills. 1. Use your knowledge, skills, facilities or equipment to serve patient interests. Do not deviate from widely accepted standards of care and practice. 2. Recognize your professional limitations and be prepared to seek advice, second opinions or reviews and refer patients onwards when appropriate. 3. Consult with your colleagues and multidisciplinary teams for the benefit of decision-making regarding your patients where appropriate. These limitations should be appropriately disclosed to patients and referring physicians. 4. When determining any fee, consider the time, skill, and experience involved in the performance of those services together with specific patient circumstances. Abide by the guidelines on professional fees set by the Professional Fee Committee of the Philippine College of Radiology. 5. Ensure that the patient is informed of your fees and other associated costs, including out of pocket costs. Encourage open discussion of health care costs, including alternative providers of care. 6. You must provide full disclosure of any interest, financial or otherwise, that you have when referring the patient to institutions or services, and in such an event you must make patients aware of alternative options. Paying a physician for referring a patient to a radiologist is unethical. 7. If you work in a practice or institution, place your professional duties and responsibilities to the patients above the commercial interests of the owners or others who work within these practices. 8. Ensure that equipment and technology are always used appropriately. THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PROFESSION Principle Seven The RADIOLOGIST must continue to develop, maintain, and share their professional knowledge with medical colleagues, trainees and students, as well as with other health professionals, patients and their families. 1.

Discrimination on the basis of (but not limited to) age, illness or disability, creed, ethnic origin, gender, nationality, political affiliation, race, sexual orientation or social standing is unacceptable. 5. Clinical teaching involving patients must be conducted in an ethical manner (i.e. informed consent, right of refusal, and recognition of priority of direct patient care). 6. If teaching or training, feedback must be given in a manner that is helpful, constructive and does not humiliate the recipient of the feedback.

7. If a colleague is having health and wellbeing issues they must be supported to the best of your ability. If patient care is at risk, appropriate steps must be taken to protect patient welfare. 8. You must ensure that your mental and physical health does not adversely affect patient care. If you experience any mental or physical health issues that affect your ability to deliver appropriate patient care you must seek appropriate treatment and take action to avoid the risk of harming patients. 9. If allegations are made against a practitioner, these must be taken seriously and investigated fairly. It must be recognized that there are many reasons for making a complaint. Confidentiality about the matter must be maintained at all times to avoid further damage to the reputation of the person who is the subject of the complaint. THE RADIOLOGIST AND THE PROFESSION Principle Nine The RADIOLOGIST must uphold the integrity of the medical profession. 1. Maintain accurate, legible, contemporaneous clinical records/reports containing sufficient detail. Do not deliberately make false radiologic report. 2. Ensure that doctors and other health professionals upon whom you call to assist in the care of the patients are appropriately qualified and experienced. Prior to practicing in a hospital or other health care entity, a radiologist shall apply, and be accepted, as a member of that entity’s medical staff in accordance with the medical staff’s bylaws and in the same manner as all other physicians. 3. In order to provide high quality healthcare, you must safeguard clinical independence and professional integrity from the increased demands of employers, society, third parties, individual patients and governments. 4. Protecting clinical independence is essential when choosing the best treatment for patients and defending their healthcare needs against any action which would deny or restrict the provision of care. 5. Refrain from entering into any contract with a colleague or an organization which may conflict with professional integrity, clinical independence or your primary obligation to the patient, or is illegal or could be at risk of being seen as illegal. Do not divide professional fee (fee splitting or rebate), either directly or indirectly by any subterfuge, nor shall he affiliate with persons or organization that does so. 6. Express your criticism in a professional and constructive way. Avoid making comments, incite nor encourage actions which may damage the reputation of a colleague, the College or the profession. Do not make derogatory remarks against colleagues and the college. 7. Initial concerns regarding unethical or unprofessional conduct should in the first instance be raised with the colleague or organization concerned. If your concerns are not addressed, report suspected unethical or unprofessional conduct by a colleague or organization to the appropriate body. 8. Where a patient alleges unethical or unprofessional conduct by another doctor, respect that patient’s right to complain. 9. The College expects the conduct of its members to comply with current laws and meet the standards of contemporary society. Members should uphold all laws, uphold the dignity and honor of the medical profession and accept its self-imposed discipline and deal honestly and fairly with patients and colleagues Members’ behavior should conform to high standards of ethical, legal, and professional conduct. Do not engage in improper practice of medicine as defined in the Philippine Regulatory Commission (PRC) and Philippine Medical Association (PMA) Code of Ethics. 10. When using social media, in a professional or private capacity, exercise caution. The obligations set out in the Code apply to social media. THE RADIOLOGIST AND SOCIETY Principle Ten The RADIOLOGIST involved in research must comply with ethical principles embodied in national and international guidelines, as well as those mandated by ethics committees. 1. Accept responsibility to advance medical science by participating in properly developed and legal research involving human participants.

Inform treating doctors of the involvement of their patients in any research project, the nature of the project and its ethical basis. 6. Respect participants’ rights to withdraw from a study at any time without prejudice to medical treatment. 7. Ensure that a patient’s decision not to participate in a study does not compromise the doctor-patient relationship or appropriate treatment and care. 8. Ensure that research results are reviewed by an appropriate peer group before public release. 9. Understand and comply with the principles and guidelines pertaining to research activity in their jurisdiction 10. Negative trial outcomes and findings are just as important as positive results and must be made public, preferably by being included in peer- reviewed literature. Ensure that research conclusions are not biased and are a fair and true representation of the trial outcomes. 11. Ensure that any research in which you participate is evaluated both scientifically and ethically, is approved by a responsible committee and is sufficiently planned and supervised that research subjects are unlikely to suffer disproportionate harm. THE RADIOLOGIST AND SOCIETY Principle Eleven The RADIOLOGIST must work to improve imaging and cancer care and promote community awareness. 1. Remember that your primary duty is to provide the patient with the best available care: you must endeavor to utilize resources in the most efficient manner. 2.
