2006 Abstract Submission Page Call for Abstracts

Meeting organizers invited the scientific community to submit abstracts of their current research to be peer reviewed and considered for inclusion in the scientific program. All accepted abstracts will be published in the special meeting issue of Molecular Imaging, the Society's award winning journal.

The online abstract submission system is now closed. 765 abstracts have been submitted, and the review process is underway. Abstract submitters should know by June 8 the status of their submission.

The Scientific Program will be constructed in large part from oral and poster abstract presentations reporting significant technological advances relevant to imaging at the whole organism or cellular levels. Imaging modalities may include nuclear medicine techniques (SPECT and PET) and non-nuclear techniques such as MRI, MRS, CT, ultrasound, intravital microscopy, optical imaging and diffuse optical tomography and other methods which elucidate molecular and cellular mechanisms, accelerate understanding of biology, test efficacy of therapeutic interventions in intact living systems and assess therapeutic outcomes. Abstracts are limited to 300 words maximum (each table or graphic counts as 25 words toward the 300-word maximum).

Abstracts should address one or more of the following categories:

  • Advances in MR Imaging
  • Advances in Multimodality Imaging
  • Advances in Optical Imaging
  • Advances in PET/SPECT Imaging
  • Bioinformatics
  • Digital Imaging Processing
  • Hyperpolarized Carbon-13 Molecular Imaging
  • Imaging Biomarkers for Therapy (MR)
  • Imaging Biomarkers for Therapy (PET)
  • Imaging Cell Signaling Pathways
  • Imaging Cell Surface Events
  • Imaging in Autoimmune Diseases
  • Imaging in Cardiovascular Disease
  • Imaging in Neuroscience
  • Imaging of Metabolic Diseases
  • Immune Cell Imaging
  • Oncologic Imaging
  • Intravital Microscopic Imaging
  • Molecular Imaging in the Drug Discovery Process
  • Mouse Models of Human Diseases
  • Nanotechnology
  • New Imaging Probes (MR)
  • New Imaging Probes (Optical)
  • New Imaging Probes (PET/SPECT)
  • New Imaging Probes (US)
  • New Reporter Genes
  • Stem Cell Imaging
  • Temporal Imaging
  • Imaging Other (i.e. EPR, thermal, etc)

Declaration of Financial Interests or Relationships
It is the policy of the Radiological Society for North America (RSNA) and the Society for Molecular Imaging (SMI) that any speaker or poster presenter making a presentation at a program designated for AMA Physician's Recognition Award Category 1 credit must disclose any financial interest or other relationship (i.e., grants, research support, consultant, honoraria, etc.) that the speaker may have with the manufacturers, distributors or providers of any commercial products or services that may be discussed in the presentation. Additionally, corresponding authors must provide disclosure information for all abstract co-authors.
