Overview
Junior Fellow Observer: Bragi Sveinsson
While many MR data acquisition and image analysis techniques are broadly applicable, there are often strong context-specific strategies that take into account the particular constraints, challenges, and opportunities that are unique to different clinical or physical contexts. This course will first review acquisition and analysis methods for clinical neuroimaging, followed by musculoskeletal imaging, and body imaging. A final session on acquisition and analysis in the context of different field strengths will be presented.
Target Audience
Clinicians, scientists, engineers, technologists, and other professionals interested in learning about acquisition and analysis techniques in different contexts.
Educational Objectives
As a result of attending this course, participants should be able to:
- Outline data acquisition and analysis methods used for clinical neuroimaging;
- Summarize the methods available for musculoskeletal imaging;
- Describe the acquisition and analysis strategies used in body imaging;
- Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of ultra-high and low field MRI; and
- Recognize the differences in MR techniques used in different clinical and physical contexts.
