The IR Escape Room is an interactive team-based experience where participants work through real-world interventional radiology challenges. Located in the Expo, teams will navigate immersive clinical scenarios that progress through Diagnostic → Complication → Resolution stages. Using imaging clues, hands-on simulators, and device technologies, teams race the clock to diagnose, manage complications, and successfully resolve the case within 15 minutes. Teams of up to five players can sign up to participate. Click here for more details .
