Tool/Resource: Conferences, Workshops and Meetings

OVERVIEW

The Ultra High Field MRI workshop will cover the latest advances in high field MRI and will also reveal the status of clinical ultra high field (UHF) MRI. We will include teaching sessions and overview presentations by invited speakers while providing time for discussion both in the form of poster presentations and panel sessions. The workshop will start with an opportunity for hands-on exercises distributed over four Ultra High Field sites located relatively close to the workshop venue.

In addition we hope to attract clinicians who are already working or who are contemplating working at Ultra High Field.

TARGET AUDIENCE

This workshop is designed for: Students and Basic Scientists using or considering use of Ultra High Field MRI, Clinicians (radiologists, cardiologists, neurologists & surgeons) and Neuroscientists with an interest in fMRI.

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

Identify the clinical applications that benefit from Ultra High Field;
Recognize the blooming potential of Ultra High Field in neuroscience;
See the sprouting of body, cardiac and MSK MRI at Ultra High Field;
Appreciate the potential and challenges of B₁ steering techniques; and
Understand the impact of spatial and temporal B₀ fluctuations.
