RSNA 3D Special Interest Group Symposium (4-hour session)

3D printing in medicine is the intersection of multiple medical and non-medical specialties including radiologists, radiological technologists, engineers, physicists and surgeons/interventionalists. Medical 3D printing has shown benefit and improved outcomes in the management of craniomaxillofacial, cardiac and musculoskeletal pathologies, among others.  This educational offering will cover best practices for medical 3D printing at the point-of-care and will allow better understanding and utilization of 3D printing services. 

In this course, the many different aspects of 3D printing in hospitals will be described including quality assurance processes that address image acquisition, processing and printing, material selection and surgical planning by organ system. Finally, a discussion on clinical appropriateness, documentation in the medical record, and reimbursement will ensure that these efforts are sustainable.

Event details

The RSNA 3D Symposium will take place Dec. 5 from 12 to 4 p.m. CT McCormick Place in Chicago. 

The symposium has limited seating and will be held for RSNA 2024 registered attendees only. Submitting your symposium reservation below does not register you for RSNA 2024—you will need to register separately.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this session the attendees will:
  • Appraise reimbursement strategies in the utilization of category III 3D printing CPT codes.
  • Adopt business management tactics in 3D printing at the point of care.
  • Develop a workflow to determine the optimal immersive imaging technology in accordance to clinical scenarios and indication of use.
  • Engage in discussion of services provided by in-hospital 3D printing operations of various sizes and resources to encourage mentorship and foster collaboration.
This course is designed for radiologists, radiology technologists, medical physicists, imaging scientists, engineers, surgeons, allied health personnel and trainees.

3D SIG Forum

Moderator: David Ballard, MD

The Forum is intended to provide a platform for discussion of topics that impact those involved in immersive imaging including 3D printing, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). These topics cover clinical aspects of immersive imaging including techniques, technology and various aspects of multidisciplinary collaboration. The Forum provides an opportunity for the SIG membership to have an active role in the development and execution of educational activities and further enhance engagement within the SIG community. This Forum is open to up to 6 presentations, each no more than 10 minutes. 

Submission Instructions: 

Submissions are limited to 1350 characters and are to be constructed using the following section headings: Teaching Points; Table of Contents/Outline; PDF Upload.

A PDF upload containing five (5) figures must accompany your Forum presentation submission. The intent of the required PDF upload is to inform the reviewer of the specific content that the learner should expect to see in a completed exhibit. Your opportunity for acceptance largely depends on what the reviewer perceives as a well thought out study rather than a promissory note.

Your single PDF file can contain up to 5 slides and may include any combination of images, charts, or graphs based on work performed at the author’s institution. The figures (images, charts, or graphs) contained in the PDF upload are intended for review purposes only. 

The official representative of the Forum presentation submission must attest that the five figures (images, charts, graphs) captured in PDF format are original works performed at the author’s institution and if accepted a minimum of 75% of the final exhibit (text and media) will consist of original work performed at the author's institution(s). 

Deadline:

Please send your submissions to 3dsig@rsna.org by Sept. 13, 2024.
