DESCRIPTION 

Stanford Radiology CME is pleased to present Body and MSK MRI: Clinical Updates and Practical Physics, in Monterey, California this Fall. This course will review physical principles from basic MRI to recent advances in coils, acceleration, image contrast and motion correction. We will describe how these principles are applied to achieve robust, high quality images. Attendees will learn how to perform and interpret body MRI exams for indications such as renal tumors, prostate cancer, rectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases and more.

Through lectures, question-and-answer sessions, and engaging panel discussions and debates, participants will be better able to optimize image interpretation, discuss controversial topics, and enhance interactions with clinician colleagues.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This program is designed for:

• Radiologists
• MR Technologists
• Fellows and Residents
• Allied Health professionals with a focus in radiology.

LEARNING 
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to:

• Develop new strategies to correctly interpret common body MRI exams
• Review the underlying principles of MR physics
• Recognize image quality issues and execute strategies to correct them
• Communicate image protocol decisions with colleagues to improve team efficiency
