RSNA 2010 AudioVisual Guidelines

To enhance the meeting room environment at RSNA 2010, all screens will be 16:9 widescreen format, not 4:3 as in previous years. To take full advantage of the new widescreen format, build or convert your presentation to 16:9. If you use 4:3 as your presentation format aspect ratio, your presentation will be "pillar boxed" on the 16:9 screens. Please download the below to assist you in your preparations.
