Rating
All abstracts will be peer reviewed by at least 2 independent reviewers. Abstracts will be scored on scientific merits, relevance to the EUSOBI audience, originality, and clarity of presentation. Abstracts scored as poor on any of these items will be automatically rejected.

The following scoring system will be used:
1 = Excellent
2 = Good
3 = Moderate
4 = Fair

Poster awards
EUSOBI is providing 2 different poster awards.
One is voted by a jury: The highest rated abstracts will receive a certificate of merit and compete for the EUSOBI poster award, by giving a presentation in front of the jury. If you qualify you will be notified in advance.
The second is voted by the public: Voting will be available during the annual meeting via the congress app.
Both prizes, a certificate of recognition and free registration to the EUSOBI Annual Scientific Meeting 2021, will be awarded on the final day of the conference.

The young physician-scientist grant aims to stimulate residents and young radiologists/nuclear medicine physicians to pursue a career in breast imaging research.
