Clinical posters should be prepared in A3 size and the final version saved in PDF format for uploading to the submission site. Only PDF files can be uploaded. All relevant images and text MUST be included in the PDF to illustrate the case report/technique in full.

The template background, text colors and font size may be customized but the document size etc. MUST NOT be altered.

The following sections must be included in the PDF poster:

This section is for case reports or clinical techniques – and not clinical research.
