Overview:
The 2024 Annual Meeting & Postgraduate Course has been structured so that the Annual Meeting will be in-person (April 13 – 15) at the InterContinental Miami in Miami, Florida, and the Postgraduate Course will follow fully live online (April 25 – 26). There will still be a hybrid track throughout the Annual Meeting that will be broadcast for remote learners, as was done for the 2023 meeting. As always, SPR 2024 will bring the pediatric radiology community together to learn more about state-of-the-art pediatric imaging and its positive impact on the children we serve. The Annual Meeting will include numerous concurrent scientific and midday sessions in addition to special featured lectures and the ever-popular SPR Jeopardy session. This year is particularly special as we welcome the members of La Sociedad Latino Americana de Radiología Pediátrica (SLARP) to our event with one full day of program components entirely in Spanish! Another highlight of our Annual Meeting is a special Pediatric Contrast US Hands-On Workshop which will include small group, hands-on sessions where attendees will practice contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) scanning using teaching models that will simulate intravenous CEUS and contrast-enhanced voiding urosonography applications. You also won't want to miss the official debut of the SPR Shark Tank! The Annual Meeting will be followed by a fully live online postgraduate course (April 25 – 26) - click here for details.

Special Note: The InterContinental Miami is currently sold out for the nights of Friday, April 12 and Saturday, April 13. We suggest that your preferred travel website be consulted to find an alternate hotel that will meet your needs. Our team at the InterContinental Miami has suggested that the Kimpton Epic is a nice hotel and only a 5-minute walk from the InterContinental. The SPR does not have agreements with the Kimpton or any other properties in the area. We would suggest that you make alternate accommodations as needed for the nights of April 12 and 13 and check back with the InterContinental Miami as the meeting dates draw near (1-800-235-4670). They often have cancellations as the meeting approaches so you may be able to expand your stay.
Staying at the conference hotel within the group block both ensures you take advantage of our discounted room rates AND helps the Society meet its contractual obligations to the hotel. Thanks for doing your part to support the SPR!
Hybrid Track (In-Person & Live Online):
To meet the growing demand for remote learning, the planning committee has designated a track within the Annual Meeting program to be broadcast live online via the Zoom Webinar platform (slides and audio only).

Both in-person registrants and those registered for only Annual Meeting live online participation will have access to the broadcast to offer flexibility to our in-person learners as well.
On-demand viewing will not be an option. Participation live, either in-person or remotely, is required for attendance and credit claiming.
An enduring, on-demand offering will be created from the session recordings and offered for purchase following the meeting. Access to the on-demand recordings is not included in the cost of registration for the live meeting.
