Authors Rules

• Individuals may only be the main presenter for a maximum of two submitted abstracts, and each individual may only submit a maximum of two abstracts.
• Individuals may co-author multiple abstracts.
• Each author should be added separately to the submission to ensure proper listing.

Presentation Formats

At the time of submission, you will be asked to select your preferred format of presentation. However, not all requests can be accommodated, and the final presentation format of your abstract will be determined by the Abstract Committee.

• Free Paper Presentation

Free paper sessions are organized around a central subspecialty and are made up of multiple presenters delivering their abstract as a 7-minute oral presentation, followed by 3 minutes for questions and answer/discussion with the audience.

• Case Presentation

Selected cases will be included in grand rounds sessions organized around a central subspecialty. The session will include multiple 5-minute case presentations, each followed by a 10-minute discussion by a panel of international experts.

• E-Poster Presentation

A select number of accepted E-posters will be organized into E-poster sessions, and the presenting author will have an opportunity to record a short oral presentation. The E-poster presentation is limited to a 5-minute recorded presentation and maximum seven slides: a title slide, financial disclosure slide and then one slide for each of these areas: objective/purpose, materials/patients, methods, results and conclusion.

• E-Poster

Electronic display of the latest research results in the field of study. E-Posters should be displayed on one page only, showing the objective, methods, results and conclusions at a glance, in a condensed yet attractive format for quick learning. The E-Poster will be grouped per theme and available to explore at all times on the virtual congress platform.

• Videos

Short videos of one to five minutes maximum in length. Videos can include presentations of a new examination, investigation, technique or presentation of an interesting case and how it was managed. The top-scored videos will have a chance to be featured in a “Best of Videos” session, including a live moderated Q&A with the video authors.
