ABSTRACT CONTENT  

  • Abstracts on research obviously not yet performed and results not yet obtained will be rejected.
  • Case studies will not be considered (unless if first-in-human).
  • Systematic reviews are accepted but literature reviews are not.
  • Papers already presented at another meeting will not be considered, unless the previous audience is distinct from the ESTRO meets Asia 2026 congress audience (e.g. national meetings).  
  • Abstracts should include new information and not solely include materials already published. 
  • If very similar abstracts are submitted by the same authors, the Scientific Programme Committee reserves the right to select only one of the abstracts and reject any others.
