Body and MSK MRI: Clinical Updates and Practical Physics

Stanford Radiology CME is pleased to present Body and MSK MRI: Clinical Updates and Practical Physics in Monterrey, California. This course will review body and musculoskeletal imaging.

Attendees will learn how to perform and interpret body MRI for indications such as renal tumors, prostate cancer, rectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases and more.   The musculoskeletal portion will include imaging of groin pain, hip, as well as interactive cases. 

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

Date & Location

Thursday, October 3, 2019, 6:30 PM – Saturday, October 5, 2019, 4:00 PM, Monterey Plaza Hotel, Monterey, CA

Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to:
  1. Develop new strategies to correctly interpret common body and MSK MRI exams.
  2. Review the underlying principles of MR physics.
  3. Recognize image quality issues and execute strategies to correct them.
  4. Communicate image protocol decisions with colleagues to improve team efficiency.
Accreditation
The Stanford University School of Medicine is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
