The Special Scientific Program will take place during the Members Meeting of the Annual Meeting of the International Skeletal Society on Tuesday afternoon, September 28, 2010.
Non-members of the Society, fellows in training (radiology, pathology, rheumatology, orthopedics, sports medicine, etc) and applicants for membership to the International Skeletal Society are also encouraged to submit abstracts.
The abstracts of the papers (5) that received an award in 2009 (ESSR 2010) at the Asian Musculoskeletal Society, European Society of Musculoskeletal Radiology, the Society of Musculoskeletal Radiology, the Australian Musculoskeletal Imaging Group and the Skeletal Radiology prize for the best paper by a non-ISS member will be presented in the Special Scientific Program.
Some abstracts may be deemed by the Committee to be more appropriate for inclusion in the Members Meeting rather than the Special Scientific Program.
For Submission of Abstracts electronically follow the detailed instructions listed numerically 1-7 under "Call for Cases" section.
Attach as a separate doc file your abstract in the section "Blinded Manuscript including Abstract" (for details see below). In addition repeat your abstract title as a separate doc file and attach it. Ignore the "Figures".

1 The abstracts should have no more than 200 words.
2 The abstracts should be structured with a Purpose, Material and Methods, Results, and Conclusion.
