Guidelines for The IVRA Bob Pechman Awards for Best Oral and Poster Presentations made by a Senior Colleague at an IVRA Meeting.

These awards are for senior presenters, those not eligible for junior colleague Rhodes Presentation Awards.

The selection criteria for the winners will be based upon:

  • the quality of the scientific abstract accepted for publication (10 marks),
  • the quality of presentation, including the clarity and standard of the images (10 marks), and
  • the scientific merit of the work, including its originality and contribution to new knowledge (10 marks).

A score out of 30 will be given by each Committee member for each candidate. For each candidate, the scores obtained from the three Committee members will be averaged and the candidates will be ranked. Should two or more candidates receive the same score, the Vice- President of the IVRA will be asked to provide an additional deciding score.
