OVERVIEW

Thoracic Imaging Annual Meeting and Postgraduate Course 2021 is organized by Society of Thoracic Radiology (STR) and will be held from Mar 06 - 10, 2021.

Description:
Scientific and Educational Abstracts: Scientific abstracts may be submitted for consideration in either an oral presentation or electronic poster format. Scientific abstracts will be scored on the basis of scientific merit. Educational abstracts for electronic poster presentation will be scored on the basis of teaching value.

The Wellness Vignettes Session is a new addition to the STR 2021 program which will focus on how Cardiothoracic Imaging sections and Radiology departments have addressed wellness, in the time of COVID. Our goal is to share initiatives and ideas that have raised awareness and influenced change. Vignettes may include those that dealt with the pandemic and those that were unrelated. We would like to encourage submission of changes that were successful and those that were not. The goal is to inspire dialog and thought based on wellness and resiliency. These presentations will be 5 minute oral presentations.

Clinical Conundrums: The Clinical Conundrums Session is returning. This will again be a light-hearted case-based session where we can let down our guard and share cases with only meeting attendees that highlight lessons learned. Our goal is to emphasize cases that did not go as well as intended, and thereby, taught us something in the process. We would like to focus on cases that introduce lessons learned rather than un-gettable fascinomas. Please submit these cases through the abstract process and select the topic “Cases for Cardiothoracic Conundrums Sessions." Presentations are intended to be short with a maximum length of 5 minutes. If you still want to speak at the meeting, this is your chance. Entertainment value is a definite plus, and a prize will be awarded—but of course in this endeavor everyone is a winner! Please submit your entries using this link below (selected cases notified by mid-January).
Priority will be given to original work that has not been presented elsewhere.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
