A Message from the SABI President - Summer 2026

Spirit of SABI

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to invite you to this year's Annual SABI Meeting, taking place at the exquisite JW Marriott Savannah Plant Riverside District in beautiful Savannah, Georgia.

This year's program will feature a stellar lineup of nationally recognized experts delivering a comprehensive and engaging program that highlights the latest advances in radiology, while exploring the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of our specialty.  We continue to emphasize innovation, discovery, and leadership, with presentations covering emerging technologies, advances in clinical practice, healthcare transformation, and the growing role of artificial intelligence in radiology.

We remain deeply committed to supporting the next generation of radiologists. The meeting will offer numerous opportunities for trainees and early-career faculty, including mentoring and leadership development sessions, networking events, and career-building resources designed to foster professional growth and success.

We are also proud to continue our partnership with the weeklong AIRE (AI in Radiology Education) course, designed for both trainees and practicing radiologists. This highly regarded program provides foundational knowledge and practical skills for integrating artificial intelligence into clinical practice, education, and research.

A major highlight of this year's meeting will be the launch of our Endowment Campaign. This important initiative will strengthen our mission by creating sustainable funding for awards and prizes, supporting educational programs, and providing seed grants to help investigators pursue innovative research ideas and secure future external funding.

Beyond the educational program, attendees will enjoy abundant opportunities to reconnect with colleagues, engage with mentors, build new collaborations, and experience the renowned hospitality and charm of Savannah. From organized social events to informal networking opportunities, the meeting offers an ideal environment for meaningful professional and personal connections.

This annual meeting is more than a conference—it is an opportunity to learn, collaborate, inspire innovation, and help shape the future of radiology.

We look forward to welcoming you to Savannah for what promises to be an exciting, enriching, and memorable event.
