OVERVIEW |
This joint SMRT-ISMRM
program is aimed at technologists/radiographers, as well
as clinicians and scientists,. It will cover the design
and implementation of multi-center MR neuro-imaging
studies. The importance of scanner QA, parameter
selection and vendor compatibility will be discussed, as
will the lessons learned from multi-center structural,
diffusion tensor, functional and perfusion studies. |
|
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
|
Upon completion of this
case based session, participants should be able to:
- Recognize the challenges associated with
performing a multi-site MRI experiment;
- Explain how existing multi-center MRI
experiments were designed and implemented;
- Describe the unique challenges associated with
executing multi-center structural, diffusion tensor,
functional, and perfusion imaging experiments; and
- Implement a multi-center study using best
practices.
