Faculty members are also required to disclose such information verbally and on their first slide. ASCRS considers presenting authors, no co-authors, to be in control of the educational content. As a professional courtesy, ASCRS acknowledges co-authors and all people contributing to the research, regardless of CME control of the live presentation of that content. Though they are acknowledged, co-authors do not have control of the CME content, and their disclosures are not published or resolved. The intent of this disclosure is not to disqualify anyone from participating but to provide the Program Committee with information so they can design and implement a balanced, independent, and scientific educational activity. The Financial Interest Index provides information to attendees so they can make their own judgement regarding the interest or relationship and the materials presented. All of the relevant financial relationships have been mitigated.
