How to Apply
Submission is available only through the online portal.
A valid email address is required for registration, as the abstract receipt notification will be sent via email.
Please be sure to keep a record of your registration ID and password.
Submission Period
12:00 PM (JST), Tuesday, September 8, 2026 – 12:00 PM (JST), Friday, October 9, 2026
Eligibility
In principle, the presenting author must be a regular JRS member as of the abstract submission deadline. Please ensure your membership application is completed by this date.
However, clinical residents, medical students, medical school graduates, and international students are eligible to submit an abstract without being a regular member. Please upload a letter of recommendation from your supervising board-certified diagnostic radiologist or radiation oncologist (and, for international students, a document verifying international student status) via the submission page provided here. There is no prescribed format for the required documents.
Furthermore, for individuals affiliated with overseas medical institutions, neither regular membership nor a letter of recommendation is required for abstract submission. However, strict measures will be taken against the intentional withdrawal of an abstract after acceptance or failure to present at the venue (no-show) for the sole purpose of building a record of academic achievement.
Submissions without a JRS membership number will be considered non-member submissions.
Separate registration for the annual meeting is required for all presenters. If registration is not confirmed, the acceptance of the abstract will be revoked and the submission will be rejected.

Abstract Preparation Guidelines
A maximum of 10 co-authors, including the presenting author, is strongly recommended. The system allows up to 19 co-authors to accommodate large-scale multi-institutional studies.
The abstract body must be written entirely in English, with a word limit of 250 words. Do not include the title, affiliations, or author names within the abstract body.
JRS86 will not provide English proofreading services. Authors are solely responsible for the proofreading of their abstracts.
Abstracts for General Research Presentations should be structured with standard sections such as “Objective”, “Materials and Methods”, “Results”, and “Conclusion”.
As a general rule, characters not compliant with JIS Level 1 and Level 2 standards cannot be used.
Please register the affiliation of the first author only. It is not necessary to enter the affiliations of co-authors. In the abstract book and conference application, author affiliations will be published using the abbreviated forms you provide. Please check the examples of abbreviations at the links below and ensure your entry is correct. The organizing committee reserves the right to amend affiliations that do not conform to the specified examples. We appreciate your understanding.
We have received reports that confirmation emails sent from the submission system are being misidentified as spam, particularly by Gmail users. If you do not receive a confirmation email, please log in to the confirmation/revision page to verify that your abstract has been successfully submitted.
Please use one of the following browsers for abstract submission: Firefox, Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Safari. The latest version of each browser is recommended.
No special consideration will be given in case of failure to submit an abstract through the website.
An abstract ID number will be automatically issued upon completion of your submission. You may revise your submission any number of times during the submission period using your ID and password. Please be responsible for keeping a record of your ID and password. If you lose your ID or password, you may reset them through the personal information registration page.
A confirmation email will be sent automatically upon submission. Please ensure that your email address is entered correctly. This email address will be used for the acceptance notification. If you do not receive the confirmation email, please verify your email address and contact us at jrc[A]asahi[D]email[D]ne[D]jp( Please change [A] to @ and [D] to . ). It is imperative that you confirm receipt of this initial email.
Acceptance of Abstracts
The acceptance, presentation format, and category of abstracts will be determined by the Congress President after review by the Program Committee.
For domestic abstract submitters, notification of acceptance will be sent in mid-December 2026.
For overseas abstract submitters, a notification of provisional acceptance will be sent in early December 2026. Details regarding pre-registration will be provided in the notification email.
The presentation schedule, presentation format, and category assignments will be announced on the Annual Meeting website by late January 2027.
For Overseas Abstract Submitters
Pre-registration is mandatory for all provisionally accepted presenters.
If your abstract is provisionally accepted, please complete your pre-registration within the designated deadline.
Failure to complete pre-registration by the deadline will result in the cancellation of your provisional acceptance. Your presentation will be withdrawn, and your abstract will not be included in the abstract book.
