ISMRM Mansfield Lecturer
Reza Razavi, M.D.
King’s College London
London, England, United Kingdom
Talk title T.B.A.
Reza Razavi, M.D., is a professor of paediatric cardiovascular science at King’s College London (KCL), a paediatric cardiologist at Guy’s & St. Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust (GSTT), and CEO of Fraiya Ltd., a startup developing AI-enabled pregnancy ultrasound technologies.
Dr. Razavi qualified in medicine at St. Bartholomew’s Medical School in 1988. He later trained in paediatrics and paediatric cardiology at GSTT and started a career in research at KCL.
His research is focused on cardiovascular imaging, and his team have led a number of innovations including first-in-man MRI-guided cardiac catheterisation procedures and MRI of the foetal cardiovascular system. He has also been the director of two major research centres, the Wellcome Trust and Engineering & Physical Sciences Research Council Centre for Medical Engineering (2010-2021) and the Innovate UK Medical Imaging and AI Centre for Value Based Healthcare (2019-2024).
He has held several leadership positions at KCL including head of Division of Imaging Sciences and Biomedical Engineering (Jan 2007 – Feb 2017), assistant principal (Research & Innovation, July 2015 – Feb 2017), and vice president (Research, March 2017 – Dec 2022).
He is the past chair of the British Society of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance and the Cardiac Study Group of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine.
Distinguished Awards
He has had honorary professorships at University of Cincinnati/Cincinnati Children’s Hospital and Monash University.
In 2019, he was awarded the Combined Royal Colleges Medal and Honorary Fellowship of the Royal Photographic Society for contributions to the field of medical imaging.
In 2023, he was awarded the Fellowship of King’s College London.

ISMRM Lauterbur Lecturer
Kim Butts Pauly, Ph.D.
Stanford University
Stanford, CA, USA
Talk title T.B.A.
Kim Butts Pauly, Ph.D., is a professor of radiology at Stanford University, where she also serves as the director of the Radiological Sciences Laboratory and interim vice-chair for Research. She earned her Ph.D. in biophysical sciences from the Mayo Graduate School and has since become a leading expert in MRI-guided focused ultrasound, particularly in its applications for cancer, neurosurgical, and psychiatric applications. Her research focuses on the development of non-invasive therapies using real-time MRI guidance, revolutionizing precision medicine.
Her current research includes optimizing MRI techniques for brain applications and exploring thermal and mechanical effects of focused ultrasound. She has published extensively in top journals, with influential papers like "MR Thermometry" and "Rapid MR-ARFI Method for Focal Spot Localization During Focused Ultrasound Therapy." Her work continues to shape the future of imaging-guided therapies, furthering advances in medical treatments.
