SIR 2026 Conference to Showcase Innovations in Minimally Invasive Medicine
The Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) is thrilled to announce the opening of registrations for its upcoming Annual Scientific Meeting, scheduled to take place from April 11 to April 15, 2026, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This event is anticipated to bring together a vibrant community of over 4,000 professionals in the field of interventional radiology (IR). The gathering will not just serve as a conference; it will be an opportunity for collaboration, knowledge transfer, and dialogue among IR professionals ranging from trainees to seasoned veterans.
The SIR 2026 meeting promises to spotlight transformative breakthroughs in minimally invasive, image-guided medicine. The scientific program, which has already been made public, will showcase nearly 400 selected oral presentations and an impressive 120 poster sessions of peer-reviewed scientific abstracts. These presentations will cover a wide array of subjects, including innovative treatments for cancer, vascular diseases, women's health issues, prostate conditions, strokes, chronic pain management, musculoskeletal problems, and lymphatic diseases.
Among the significant highlights of the SIR 2026 meeting will be specialized deep-dive learning labs, wherein participants will have the opportunity to engage in focused, hands-on learning experiences across high-demand topics. Moreover, dedicated learning tracks will cater to a wide range of attendees, from medical students and early-career interventional radiologists to administrators and allied health professionals.
One of the key features of this year's program will be the prestigious Dr. Charles T. Dotter Lecture, which will be delivered by Professor Andrew Holden. Professor Holden, who serves as the director of the interventional radiology service at Auckland City Hospital in New Zealand, is expected to share valuable insights and knowledge, further enriching the discussions at the conference.
Media representatives are warmly invited to participate and cover this scientific meeting. Attendees will have the chance to engage with leading interventional radiologists and learn firsthand about groundbreaking research and the latest trends shaping the future of interventional radiology. For credentialed media personnel who qualify, press registration will be complimentary. Those interested in media registration can contact Elise Grant via email at [email protected].
