2026 ACVNU Lower Urinary Tract Symposium

We’re thrilled to announce that Early Bird Registration is now open for the 2026 ACVNU Lower Urinary Tract Symposium (LUTS 2026) — taking place March 8–11, 2026 in Raleigh, North Carolina!

Hosted by the American College of Veterinary Nephrology and Urology (ACVNU) in partnership with NC State University College of Veterinary Medicine, this first-of-its-kind symposium is dedicated entirely to the diagnosis and management of lower urinary tract disorders in companion animals.

  • The 2026 program features:
    3.5 days of cutting-edge CE, including lectures, case discussions, and hands-on labs.
  • Small-group laboratories covering cystoscopy, urethral procedures, fluoroscopy-guided interventions, and more.
  • Networking events and receptions connecting veterinary nephrologists, urologists, internists, and criticalists from around the world.
  • A scientific poster session showcasing the latest research in lower urinary tract disease.

Space in many labs is limited to optimize the hands-on experience, so we encourage you to register early to secure your preferred sessions.

Register now and view the full program at LUTS2026.org

We can’t wait to welcome you to Raleigh next March for this landmark event in veterinary nephrology and urology!
