Practical Neuroradiology: Excellence in Action 2027

The Mayo Clinic Practical Neuroradiology: Excellence in Action 2027 course will take place February 22–25, 2027, at the Four Seasons Resort Whistler in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada. We are currently accepting poster submissions related to neuroradiology and neuroimaging.

This is an excellent opportunity to share your work with colleagues, highlight research and educational innovations, and engage with leaders in the field of neuroradiology while enjoying one of North America's premier winter destinations. Previously presented materials are welcome. Topics including original research, educational exhibits, technical innovations, case reports/series, and quality improvement projects are encouraged.

 

Course participants are invited to submit abstracts highlighting neuroradiological imaging with the goals of promoting education, sharing research innovations and clinical insights, and fostering collaboration and networking among attendees. Posters of accepted abstracts will be displayed throughout the course.

 

Selected presenters may also be invited to participate in brief, 30-minute poster review sessions currently planned for Monday, February 22, and Wednesday, February 24, 2027.
