Our Take
Why Exhibit
The most concentrated gathering of breast imaging specialists in the US. If you sell mammography equipment, breast ultrasound, breast MRI coils, AI-based detection software, biopsy devices, or cryoablation systems, SBI is where the buyers are. Record attendance and growing international presence signal a thriving market.
Why Skip
Very narrow audience -- purely breast imaging. Non-breast-imaging products have no audience. The show is mid-size, so booth inventory is limited and premium placements sell out quickly.
Insider Tips
SBI is growing fast -- the 2024 Montreal meeting set an attendance record and 2025 Colorado Springs sold out housing immediately. This signals strong commercial interest. Industry-Sponsored Labs at $20,000 are a unique way to get hands-on device time with breast imaging radiologists. Seattle is a nice venue city.
