Welcome to The Danish Microbiological Society
The Danish Microbiological Society is a scientific society for microbiologists in Denmark which is concerned with all fields of microbiology.
The Danish Microbiological Society (DMS)
The Danish Microbiological Society (DMS) is a scientific community uniting microbiologists across Denmark and beyond. Founded in 1958, DMS has been a cornerstone of microbiological research, collaboration, and education for over six decades.
DMS’s core mission is fostering collaboration and knowledge-sharing among microbiologists. Each year, the Society hosts a dynamic annual congress in November, bringing together professionals, researchers, and students to share insights, present findings, and network. Additionally, DMS organizes a General Assembly and Symposium every spring, further strengthening connections within the Danish microbiological community.
DMS is also dedicated to nurturing the next generation of microbiologists. Through its scholarship program, the Society provides financial support to young researchers pursuing studies or collaborative projects abroad. These grants enable aspiring microbiologists to gain valuable international experience, build networks, and advance their careers.
DMS serves as Denmark’s official representative to prestigious international organizations, such as the International Union of Microbiological Societies (IUMS) and the Federation of European Microbiological Societies (FEMS). Through this representation, the Society plays an influential role in shaping global discussions on microbiological standards.
By joining DMS, you become part of a thriving network that supports the advancement of microbiology in Denmark and beyond. Stay connected through our website, subscribe to the DMS newsletter, and follow us on LinkedIn for the latest news and updates.

HFUS
Introduction to High Frequency Ultrasonography
HFUS is a recently introduced diagnostic technique, which finds several applicationsin diverse clinical fields. It uses a range of frequencies higher than 20 MHz and provides a high spatial resolution, making this technique suitable for several clinical applications, such as imaging of skin, blood vessels, musculoskeletal anatomy, oral mucosa, and small parts.
Considering the many applications of HFUS in dermatology, we want to highlight its suitability in clinical evaluation of melanocytic lesions and non-proliferative diseases, which includes lichen sclerosus, morphea, sarcoidosis, hidradenitis suppurativa, chronic and acute wounds.
Moreover, HFUS may be useful in the evaluation of micro-vascularity, skin thickness modifications and skin structures modifications in systemic diseases (e.g., diabetes and Sjogren disease).
