IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS)

Papers are solicited for this conference describing original work in the field of ultrasonics. A 1-page abstract should be submitted according to the specifications below.  

Each abstract will receive careful review and evaluation by the Symposium Technical Program Committee. Evaluation criteria will include originality of the work, contribution to the state-of the-art, and overall interest to the ultrasonics community.

If your abstract is accepted, authors will be required to upload a pre-recorded video. These will be uploaded to the CONFlux virtual platform. We highly encourage authors to have a presenter who is onsite at the conference to present live. If no authors are able to attend in-person, the pre-recorded videos will be played back during the live sessions.

Submission of a conference paper, up to four pages, will be highly encouraged at a later date for authors whose abstracts are accepted at the conference.

The abstract submission site will be available by January 31.
