OVERVIEW |
This one-day course focuses on
the impact of continuing innovations in magnetic-resonance
technology on clinical MRI of the body. The program includes
detailed didactic-interactive lectures using audience response
technology as well as case-based presentations. Following
technique-based lectures, comprehensive lectures the on liver,
pancreas, and pelvis will be given. The course is patient focused
and considers the potential impact of MRI in individualized patient
care. |
|
TARGET AUDIENCE |
This course is aimed at
radiologists who wish to incorporate the use of MR into their
practice and to learn how evolving body MRI techniques aid in
clinical problem solving and impact individualized patient care. The
course content will also be of interest to MR technologists and
clinical support scientists involved in body MRI. |
|
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
As a result of attending this
course, participants should be able to: |
- Categorize and select the
appropriate basic strategies for body MRI/MRA including commonly
used contrast agents;
- Demonstrate the utility
of MRI to detect and characterize focal liver lesions in both
the cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic liver;
- Illustrate new MRI
methods for detection and quantification of diffuse liver
disease;
- Convey the role of MRI in
the management of malignant and non-malignant disease of the
female pelvis;
- Assess the role of MRI
for imaging the prostate; and
- Employ MRI and MRCP in
the diagnosis and management of cystic lesions of the pancreas.
