Abstract Evaluation: The Program Committee will only evaluate application forms containing an informative abstract. Please do not submit supplemental material for review by the Committee. Please do not send your abstract by FAX. 

Scheduling of Abstract on Program: The Program Committee will schedule certain clinical and research papers for poster sessions. Authors whose applications are accepted for posters will receive specific instructions when they are notified of their papers' acceptance. All abstracts submitted in conformity with the rules will, if accepted, be incorporated into either the podium sessions or poster sessions whose makeup will be controlled, as much as possible, by the author's selection of method and topic.  The final decision, however, will rest with the Program Committee. You will be notified of your abstract acceptance by mail.
