The meeting was an opportunity to get to know projects from both institutions and to promote interaction between professionals.

The European Rare Diseases Research Alliance (ERDERA) kicked off this September, with an estimated budget of 380 million euros and the aim of improving the lives of 30 million rare disease patients in Europe and beyond.

Using computed tomography (CT), with or without contrast, it is possible to perform an accurate and safe detection of the disease without the need for biopsies and avoiding the limitations of other non-invasive diagnostic tools.
