Get ready for ECIO 2025!

March 27, 2025

The world’s premier meeting on interventional oncology is coming up quickly! While it’s not time to pack your bags for Rotterdam quite yet, read on to make sure you get the most out of your ECIO 2025 congress experience.

Access options

ECIO will travel to Rotterdam for the very first time. Rotterdam’s Ahoy centre will provide a comfortably modern backdrop for scientific presentations, meetings, and networking.

On-site attendees will receive their badge code by email for easy self-printing at the congress centre. If you’d like to beat the lines, the self-printing stations and registration help desk will be open between 11:00 and 18:00 on Saturday, April 12.

In-person delegates and All-Access Pass holders will also have access to the custom-built online congress platform, on which all sessions from auditoriums 1 and 2 will be live streamed from Rotterdam. Lectures from all auditoriums will be available for on-demand viewing shortly after they conclude.

It’s not too late to get the 2025 All-Access Pass!

From tried and true to cutting-edge

The ECIO 2025 Scientific Programme Committee, under the leadership of Chairperson Laura Crocetti and Deputy Chairperson Jean Palussière, has compiled a dynamic programme that will play out over the course of four days, 143 presentations, 36 sessions, and 16 opportunities for hands-on device training.

Highlights will include revolutions in HCC treatment, immuno-oncology, paediatric IO, and much more. Additionally, ECIO 2025 will include “ECIO meets” sessions with the International Liver Cancer Association (ILCA), the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS), and the European Association of Urology (EAU).

Can’t wait for April? Take a first look at some of this year’s topic highlights with articles from their respective lectures via the ECIO 2025 sneak peeks!

Get hands-on

ECIO 2025 will feature various exclusively in-person sessions that will give participants the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the following areas: tumour ablation, radioembolization, musculoskeletal oncologic interventions, and safe sedation application during IR procedures. Don’t miss the opportunity to be there live to catch these top-rated sessions and advance your technical skills! Participation is free of charge for all registered attendees, but places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first served basis. As all hands-on training sessions offer practical medical training, participation is for qualified medical professionals only.

The IO Foundation Course

ECIO 2025 will once again include an Interventional Oncology Foundation Course the day before the congress. This course provides young interventionists interested in expanding their practice to include oncology treatments a first introduction to the fourth pillar of cancer care; a fantastic learning opportunity for young physicians ready to become the next generation of interventional oncologists!

If you have not had the chance to attend the IO Foundation Course so far, you can do so one day prior to ECIO 2025 in Rotterdam! Click here for more information.
