No matter where you are in the world — onsite in Chicago or in your office — RSNA 2021 Virtual Meeting gives you access to live-streamed and on-demand courses from the RSNA annual meeting.

If you are attending the meeting in person, add the Virtual Meeting to your registration package to enjoy the full meeting experience, including both in-person and virtual programming and in-person technical exhibit halls and the Virtual Exhibition. All attendees who register for virtual access will be able to view content online via livestream and on-demand with 100% of eligible meeting programming available through April 30, 2022.

“RSNA 2021 is an opportunity to learn new skills, understand emerging technologies and network with colleagues from around the world,” said Sanjeev Bhalla, MD, RSNA Board liaison for education and section chief of the Cardiothoracic Imaging Section at Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, St. Louis. “If you attend in person, virtually or a hybrid of both, the education, technology previews and networking opportunities are still diverse, unique and abundant. In fact, adding the Virtual Meeting to your registration packet, ensures that you won’t miss any conflicting sessions when you can’t be in two places at once.”

Dig Deep Into Meeting Program Sessions

The meeting site (Meeting.RSNA.org) is designed to quickly get you where you need to be, whether that is browsing the more than 450 educational and science sessions and 2,500 scientific posters and educational exhibits, exploring the Virtual Exhibition to see the latest available products and services, or networking with your peers. The site is mobile optimized, taking the place of the meeting app and allowing instant access to programming using a range of handheld devices.

Featured sessions appear on a daily schedule throughout the week, and many include live Q&A with the presenters. You will also find the plenary sessions, a full line-up of industry-related presentations and the Virtual Exhibition. You can participate in audience response sessions during live programming.

From the Program Sessions page of the meeting site, you can filter sessions by day, type and topic or subspecialty. You can also filter for featured and on-demand sessions. A search tool is available to find sessions by course number or presenter name.

RSNA Virtual Meeting allows you to maximize your meeting experience by engaging with other professionals using the Live Chat Agent function to discuss session content with colleagues around the world and also a networking feature to help you connect with colleagues in the same subspecialty. The RSNA 2021 Live Chat Agent is sponsored by Polarean, Inc.

Test your knowledge with Case of the Day (available only during the meeting week) and check back the following morning to see the correct answers. Virtual Meeting participants who submit the correct answer will receive 0.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.

The official meeting program takes place between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Central Time (CT). To plan your meeting schedule in your local time zone, add sessions to your personal calendar.

"RSNA Virtual Meeting has grown to be a valuable asset to the scientific meeting. It provides attendees the opportunity to access the same high-quality content as the in-person meeting, but at a time and place that is more convenient for them.”

Sanjeev Bhalla, MD, RSNA Board liaison for education
