Sunrise Session
ORGANIZERS: Riccardo Lattanzi, Kimberly Amrami, Jung-Ah Choi, Jan Fritz, Miika Nieminen, Hiroshi Yoshioka
Skill Level: Intermediate to Advanced
Session Number: S-Tu-06 Overview This course will introduce technical and clinical aspects of advanced topics in musculoskeletal MR, including whole-body MRI, MRI of neuromuscular disease, advanced MR imaging of tendinopathy, and MRI for osteoarthritis. The course emphasis will be on incorporating advanced imaging techniques for these applications in relevant clinical settings. Target Audience The target audience is radiologists and imaging scientists with specialty expertise in musculoskeletal imaging who are interested in incorporating advanced techniques into clinical practice and research. Educational Objectives As a result of attending this course, participants should be able to: - Describe the application of techniques and applications for WBMRI with diffusion at 1.5 and 3T; - Identify clinical applications and opportunities for the use of WBMRI; - Name and apply techniques such as ultrashort TE for advanced imaging of tendinopathy; - Apply quantitative imaging for MRI of osteoarthritis for improved value and diagnostic accuracy; - List the applications of MRI for evaluating neuromuscular disease; and - Explain the use of non-proton imaging techniques such as phosphorus and sodium imaging and spectroscopy for neuromuscular dieases.
