Abstract Submission Guidelines

All abstracts should be submitted electronically via online submission system. The online submission system can be accessed via the Congress website. The abstracts submitted via e-mail, fax, and regular post will not be accepted.

Deadline for Abstract Submission: August 23, 2024

The authors can submit original research, case reports, and case series. Presentations should be capable of contributing to scientific development and should contain a concluding message.
