Radiopaedia.org and UK Radiology Congress (UKRC) are delighted to be bringing the Case of the Day competition to the UKRCO2017 meeting in Manchester, UK.

On site

We are on site through all three days from June 12-14 at the Manchester Central Convention Complex. Our Case of the Day zone is by the main entrance to the center where we can help with any questions. You also have the opportunity to interrogate the cases and answers on high quality display systems, kindly supplied by Barco.

There will be two cases per day:

• Monday 12 June
  • Case 1 (Neuro), Case 2 (Chest)
• Tuesday 13 June
  • Case 3 (Pediatrics), Case 4 (Trauma)
• Wednesday 14 June
  • Case 5 (GI), Case 6 (MSK)

Each day, come and see the cases and submit your answers at here.

Answers will be available at the Case of the Day zone the next day before going online.

The winner for each case will receive 12 months free access to the Adult Brain MRI review and Neuroradiology Update 2016 courses, as well as FREE entry passes to next year's UKRC 2018 meeting.

Online access

Links to access the Case of the Day are on the UKRC2017 course page.

As for conference attendees, you can submit your answers on bit.ly/ukrccod. Correct answers and winners will be online after being made available first at UKRCO. 

Each case winner will receive 12 months Adult Brain MRI review and Neuroradiology Update 2016 course access.

Cases

The cases have been selected from entries submitted by Radiopaedia.org contributors from around the world; from Glasgow to Melbourne to Surat, India. Thanks to all who added such high quality cases for us to choose from.

The six case authors have also been awarded 12 months course access as above.

Sponsor

We are thankful to Barco for supporting the Case of the Day competition by providing four diagnostic display systems including the Coronis Fusion 6MPand the Coronis Uniti 12MP for case viewing during the conference. 

Radiopaedia.org and the UK Radiology Congress (UKRC) are collaborating for the first time to bring a Case of the Day competition to this year’s conference.

The conference runs June 12-14 at the Manchester Central Convention Complex in the United Kingdom. The theme of this year’s conference is “new techniques and technologies”, with plenary sessions on machine learning and artificial intelligence in radiology, as well as a comprehensive general radiology programme. 

Everyone in the world will have an opportunity to a submit a radiology case for the UKRC 2017 Case of the Day competition. Each day during the conference, cases will be available to view in the dedicated Radiopaedia zone. The cases will also be shared across Radiopaedia's social media network and on the homepage so the whole world can join in the learning.

This competition is open to anyone in the world, not just those living in the UK. This is our way of helping to make UKRC 2017 a truly global education event. 

Prizes

Users who submit a case that is used for the Case of the Day will receive 12 months online access to our Adult Brain MRI review course and Neuroradiology Update 2016 course, featuring Frank Gaillard, Andrew Dixon and Peter Mitchell. 

Each day, there will be 2 cases to review and there will be prizes for delegates at the meeting venue itself, and for those entering online from anywhere else in the world. 

UKRC delegates

Each delegate winner will receive FREE entry passes to UKRC 2018 and 12 months online access to our Adult Brain MRI review course and Neuroradiology Update 2016 course.

Non-conference participants 

Each winner will receive 12 months of online access to our Adult Brain MRI review course and Neuroradiology Update 2016 course.

Cases

In the run up to the conference, you have the opportunity to submit cases to feature as the Case of the Day. The Radiopaedia.org editorial team will select the best ones and we will also be showcasing a number of the best submissions as our very own Radiopaedia.org 'cases of the day' on our home page and through social media. And, even better, you will be contributing to your personal case library and helping Radiopaedia.org grow!

To submit a case, upload a case and add the tag “UKRC2017” in the right-hand column of the case edit page. Please make sure that your case is fully fleshed out (see our case publishing guidelines). We are accepting cases from all subspecialties.

Submitting a case is easy, especially if you are using one of our case uploaders. If not, then you can do it the old fashioned browser-based way. If you are not already familiar with how this works, this short video will help.

Dates

The final day for case submissions is Sunday 30th April. We will be in touch with you nearer the time of the conference to let you know if your case has been selected as a Case of the Day.

We are thankful to Barco for supporting the Case of the Day competition by providing four diagnostic display systems including the Coronis Fusion 6MP and the Coronis Uniti 12MP for case viewing during the conference.
