ISMRM-SNMMI Co-Provided Workshop on PET/MRI
Location:
USC Health Sciences Center - Los Angeles, CADescription:
This workshop will focus on both the technical aspects of PET/MRI as well as the clinical utility of PET/MRI. We will have sessions on technical developments such as novel MR attenuation correction techniques and approaches to motion correction. We will also have focused sessions based on body parts for clinical and research applications (neuro, GU/gyn, cardiac, etc). Other sessions will highlight radiotracers to demonstrate how non-FDG tracers can be leveraged in novel ways using PET/MRI. We will also highlight AI's increasingly important role in improving PET acquisition and reconstruction (including ultra-low dose) and diagnosis (post-processing segmentation and diagnosis). We will include sessions on how to help develop multi-center trials and to facilitate this we will have breakout sessions based on disease type for participants to work in small groups to discuss the need and possibly design multi-center trials.
