Our Take
Why Exhibit
The only major US conference dedicated to neuroradiology. If you sell neuroimaging AI, MRI coils for brain/spine, neuro-navigation systems, or neuroradiology workstations, ASNR delivers the highest concentration of neuroradiology decision-makers. Hotel-based show with the exhibit hall on the main activity level ensures high foot traffic.
Why Skip
Very niche audience -- general radiology products are better served at RSNA. Small show with limited booth inventory. Hotel-based venue limits booth sizes and display options.
Insider Tips
ASNR is a hotel conference, not a convention center -- think intimate exhibit area with high-quality interactions rather than massive booth builds. The Austin JW Marriott is a great venue. AI in neuroradiology is the hottest topic -- if you have a neuro AI product, this is the right show.
