The scientific sessions are the heart of
the meeting, and each session features moderated, peer-reviewed
presentations grouped into related categories.
This year, SIIM
introduces 3 Featured Scientific Sessions, each including a combination
of invited speakers and scientific abstract presentations, all related
to one topic. Two invited speakers will participate in each session and
highlight the scientific talks. The scientific program also features a
poster and demonstration session/ prizes, and the Roger A. Bauman Award
for Best Student Paper.
