Call for Videos – Submit your video!
ASCRS Members and Non-members can submit video files for review and possible presentation during a live webinar in the series. All video files will undergo a single-blind review process and if selected they will be presented anonymously during the webinar.
Video Requirements:
- Videos must be 2 – 10 minutes in length of continuous uncut footage of the session topic unless editing permissions are otherwise noted for the video topic.
- Videos should not have audio (no music, no narration, etc.)
- Videos should not be ‘slick’ examples. We are looking for videos that show a problem to solve or technique to improve on. Authors can include a short note regarding why they submitted their video (for example “I got stuck at this point. “or “How do I get set up better for this move?”) on the video submission form.
Please review these Video Submission Guidelines in full prior to submitting your video.
Video submissions are now being accepted for the following topics:
- Resection for splenic flexure tumors [09.26.2024] - Edited videos are permitted for this session. You do not need to add video transitions. Videos should focus on one portion of the procedure (for example, the lateral-to-medial approach versus medial-to lateral approach).
- Sacral nerve stimulation [11.14.2024] Videos should capture as best as possible the patient positioning as well as radiologic confirmation (make sure this is de-identified).
