Tuve la fortuna de participar en el primer encuentro nacional de residentes en la Cd. de México coordinado por él; era grandiosa la manera en que el conducía el análisis d e los diferentes casos, fue un gran divulgador científico de la rama de Imagenología médica, siempre se le recordará como un grande en su rama. Apenas ayer me enteré de su partida.
