Through continuous innovations in medical science and technology, Surgical and Non-Surgical Spine interventions have advanced into an even broader variety, giving spine care practitioners a wider range of options for intervention and treatment through invasive and non-invasive management processes.

With our usual theme of SSS Annual Conference “Promoting Excellence in Multidisciplinary Spine Care”. We will bring to mind seeking out guidance-in- controversy and wisdom in-judgment when deciding for our clinical challenges, the promotion of team-based medicine and joint contributions to patient welfare. Multidisciplinary approach optimizes our practice as we retool spine care for the twenty-first century.

Our Scientific Sessions will explore various aspects of pathologies affecting the spine, leading researchers for academia, industry and hospitals will present their recent achievements in technologies and clinical studies discussing their most exciting development.
