Venue:

ISCT is dedicated to promoting and coordinating the scientific, philanthropic, intellectual and professional activities of computed tomography. The Society's mission is to serve the health care needs of the general public through the support of science, teaching and research and the quality of service in the field of computed tomography.

Tradition of Success

ISCT is pleased to present two of the premiere CT conferences in the world. These symposia each have a long tradition of success and will retain their distinct features including their unique meeting formats and the participation of world experts. The move to ISCT will not change these meetings, rather create an opportunity for synergy and shared innovation in CT education.

Education is Critical in Today's Technology Industries

With the rapid pace of technology change in CT, the need for education is critical. Together under the ISCT umbrella, the educational programs will continue to highlight evolving CT technology and play a key role in disseminating the capabilities and potential for the various platforms, while also serving as a forum for investigators to collaborate and compare imaging approaches and results.
