At PARCA we strive to make ourselves available to our members. We are therefore pleased to announce that we will be holding functions at two of the industry's most prestigious meetings - RSNA in Chicago this November, and PACS2007 in San Antonio next spring.

RSNA has hosted an annual meeting for over 90 years. This year, PARCA is pleased to invite all our members to an informal networking breakfast on Tuesday November 28, 6.30-8am at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place in Chicago.

This free event is open to all PACS System Administrators, not just PARCA members, so come along and network with your peers. PARCA Advisory board members will be available to answer any questions you may have regarding certification.

Space is limited, so let your colleagues know and reserve your spot now by emailing us with the names of yourself and colleagues who plan on attending. Click here to send reserve your spot now!
