Welcome Address from Organising Chairperson

On behalf of the Malaysian Thoracic Society (MTS) Executive Council and the MTS2022 Organising Committee, it gives me great pleasure and honour to invite you to participate in the forthcoming MTS2022 Annual Congress, held in SPICE Convention Centre, Penang from 13th till 16th October 2022.

MTS Annual Congress has always been a unique meeting focusing on both adult and paediatric respiratory diseases. It is the optimal forum for sharing advances, updates and new information in all areas of adult and paediatric pulmonology. The meeting caters for all. It is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for interactions between clinicians, academics and allied health professionals alike.

We shall kick start MTS2022 with the congress workshops focussing on Pulmonary hypertension, Critical care medicine and Paediatric thoracic radiology. The main congress includes plenary and meet the expert sessions, topic symposia and interactive sessions. In addition, the program also includes in-depth learning for specific topics, poster and oral presentation of original scientific research and clinical case reports. Don’t miss out on our sunrise sessions which offers the latest updates from ERS2022 and tips and tricks on acing the Respiratory exit viva exams! It is a power-packed scientific program line up this year, involving both local and international experts. So, expect the best during MTS2022!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the members of the organising committee in advance for their efforts and enthusiasm. They are the key towards a successful MTS2022.

Lastly, enjoy Penang! Just mask up and stay safe. Looking forward to meeting all of you in person at MTS2022.
