Savvas Frangos
I was born in Limassol, Cyprus. Having studied Medicine in Berlin (West) Germany, my first steps in Nuclear Medicine were also in Berlin and I finished my Specialization in Thessaloniki, Greece. After my board certification I established the first private department of Nuclear Medicine in Cyprus. I am also Fellow of the European Board of Nuclear Medicine and I served as examiner for many years. I was one of the founders and the first President of the Cyprus Society of Nuclear Medicine. I am currently working at the Nuclear Medicine Department and I am running the Thyroid Clinic of the Bank of Cyprus Oncology Center.
My many years of experience in Nuclear Medicine positions and specifically at the EANM Secretary position, as Secretary and Treasurer of Section of Nuclear Medicine of UEMS as well as Treasurer of WFNMB are a testament to my hard work and dedication to the purposes of Nuclear Medicine. I will do my outmost to promote once again, this time from the position of President Elect and later President of the World Federation of Nuclear Medicine and Biology, and in conjunction with the other members of the Governing Body, the best interests of Nuclear Medicine around the globe.
