recipients at the closing general session on Sunday morning. To be
eligible for an award, authors are to turn in a full paper for
peer-review to the Journal of Digital Imaging before or
during the SIIM 2007 meeting via
JDI Manuscript
Central.
CME NOTICE:
Since SIIM scientific presentations
are accredited for CME credit, SIIM maintains the right to actively
protect that accreditation. The poster and demo session moderators
will be instructed to interrupt speakers whose
talk has an overt marketing bias, and to document those instances.
Such documentation will be used in abstract evaluations for future
SIIM meetings. To avoid this, presenters are advised to avoid
all marketing logos except for an opening slide and disclose any
potential conflicts of interest (if applicable). |
SECURITY:
Neither the Rhode Island Convention Center or SIIM will be responsible for loss or
damage to any display or equipment for any cause. |
