Each year ec² Software Solutions has the privilege of attending the industry’s premier education and research meeting in molecular imaging and nuclear medicine. SNMMI always  provides the nuclear medicine and molecular imaging community with the most up-to-date information in the field. We look forward to joining more than 4,000 attendees  this year in Baltimore, MD, for the 2015 Annual Meeting. This year’s educational program provides physicians, technologists, pharmacists, laboratory professionals, and scientists an in-depth review of molecular imaging technologies, clinical applications, and translational and advanced research topics.

Educational Offerings

A total of 81 expert-led continuing education sessions have been organized by the Scientific Program Committee on topics ranging from PET/MR for neurologic disorders to alpha therapy for bone metastases to SPECT/CT in thyroid and parathyroid disease.

A wide array of workshops and research sessions will be held, including an educators’ forum, review courses, the CT and MRI Case Review Workshop, and a complimentary Patient Education Day on Sunday, June 7.

To get the most out of your annual meeting experience, be sure to attend the Sunday and Monday morning plenary sessions, as well as the Henry N. Wagner Highlights Symposium.
Full Annual Meeting attendees may attend the pre-meeting MIRD Radiopharmaceutical Dosimetry Symposium on June 4–5, which will update attendees on the current status of radiopharmaceutical therapy, with a particular emphasis on the key role played by dosimetry.

The scientific sessions (SNMMI received more than 2000 abstracts!) will be grouped into 10 tracks representing 66 categories. More than 90 oral scientific sessions will be offered for physicians, scientists, and pharmacists, with eight oral sessions for technologists and technologist students.
