21st Annual Scientific Meeting of the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography

July 9 - 12, 2026

SCCT2026 is the premier global meeting dedicated to cardiovascular CT, bringing together physicians, trainees, technologists and healthcare professionals for a comprehensive look at the field’s latest advances.

Designed for learners at every stage, the program features sessions for both new and experienced practitioners, spanning foundational concepts, clinical applications and cutting-edge research. Attendees will gain practical insights they can apply directly to patient care while staying at the forefront of innovation.

Educational sessions will cover a broad range of topics, including structural and congenital heart disease, coronary artery disease, vascular heart disease, guidelines and clinical trials, AI and machine learning, technical aspects of cardiac CT, early career development, and interactive debates and games.

SCCT2026 offers a welcoming, close-knit community where meaningful connections are easy to make. Visit the exhibit hall to explore the latest cardiac CT technologies, engage with colleagues during poster discussions and build new professional relationships in a collaborative environment.

SCCT2026 Health Policy

The health and safety of our communities, audiences, and families is important to SCCT. COVID-19 resulted in cancellation of our 2020 and 2021 meetings, and we are pleased to offer an in-person meeting to those whom feel comfortable meeting in person again. SCCT is committed to compliance with all local and federal guidance with respect to meetings including CDC guidance. We also acknowledge that our members and attendees largely work in healthcare, where often more specific guidance may be applicable to any individual. At the time of this policy update, we do not plan to verify your compliance with local (prior) guidance, but we do recommend that you follow the advice of relevant authorities—we thus encourage vaccines as medically directed, and masking as per your judgment, especially in situations where you cannot avoid prolonged close contact. As always, you should not attend the annual meeting if you are actively ill or contagious with an infectious disease (including COVID-19).

Should you contract COVID-19 or feel ill approaching the event, please contact info@scct.org. We will work with you to accommodate your needs.
