Abstract submission
The CIRSE annual meeting is the largest and most comprehensive forum for experts in image-guided minimally-invasive therapies. Make the most of the opportunity to showcase your scientific achievements and educational material by submitting an abstract to CIRSE 2021.
Abstract submission for CIRSE 2021 is open until March 15.
Two new abstract submission categories, [email protected] clinical trials and trial design and methodology, have been added for CIRSE 2021 in order to further support research in interventional radiology by providing a special platform for researchers to present their work to an international audience, ensuring superior release and/or distribution. Find out more below.
All abstracts must be submitted in English through our online abstract submission system. Costs associated with the submission and presentation of the abstract are the responsibility of the presenter. Notifications of acceptance or rejection will be sent out to the presenting author by the end of May 2021.
All accepted abstracts will be published in the online programme organiser, the congress app, and the book of abstracts released as part of CIRSE’s official journal CVIR. Authors presenting at [email protected] will also benefit from fast-track review for publication in CVIR. Both oral and poster presentations will be made available online in the CIRSE Library during and after the congress.
If you have any questions, please contact the CIRSE office at [email protected].
