The energy is already building as planning for SIIM26 kicks off in full force. With the premier medical imaging informatics conference set for June 10–12, 2026 in Pittsburgh, PA, excitement is mounting as the community comes together to design a program that will inspire, challenge, and connect imaging informatics professionals from across disciplines.

Record-Breaking Community Engagement Shapes SIIM26 Program

The SIIM26 Annual Meeting Program Committee recently convened at SIIM Headquarters in Leesburg, VA, with virtual participants joining for their annual planning meeting. This collaborative gathering marked the official launch of program development, with passionate discussions about the future of healthcare imaging informatics and the transformative themes that will define SIIM26.

This year has already seen a record number of session proposals — a testament to the innovation and engagement within the SIIM community. Over 85% of the 2026 program is being shaped through community-submitted session proposals, reflecting the depth and diversity of expertise driving the field forward.

Introducing New Learning Lab Experiences

Among these submissions is an exciting new Learning Lab category, designed to give attendees hands-on, skills-based learning experiences that bridge theory and practice. These interactive sessions will allow participants to develop practical competencies in cutting-edge imaging informatics technologies and workflows.

Each proposal represents a unique perspective, and together they are shaping what promises to be one of the most dynamic and comprehensive programs in SIIM history.

Key Themes: Collaboration, Integration, and Patient-Centered Innovation

The conversations underway highlight essential themes for the future of medical imaging:

  • Cross-specialty collaboration in radiology informatics
  • Integration across healthcare systems and specialties
  • Advancing patient care through innovative informatics solutions
  • AI and machine learning applications in medical imaging
  • Interoperability and data standards in imaging workflows

Why SIIM26 Matters for Imaging Informatics Professionals

What makes SIIM26 especially exciting is not only the breadth of content but the shared vision emerging through collaborative planning. Attendees can look forward to:

  • Sessions addressing evolving challenges in PACS, RIS, and enterprise imaging
  • Exploration of emerging opportunities in AI-driven diagnostics
