|
| OVERVIEW |
|
This course will describe
commonly used imaging pulse sequences and their building blocks,
data acquisition and artifact suppression strategies, and basic and
advanced image reconstruction techniques. |
| |
| TARGET AUDIENCE |
|
MR physicists and engineers,
pulse sequence developers, and clinicians who want to deepen their
understanding of MRI acquisition and reconstruction methods. |
|
|
| EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course,
participants should be able to: |
- Develop a systematic
understanding of pulse sequence building blocks and components;
- Gain an in-depth
understanding of advanced data acquisition strategies, and their
potential and limitations;
- Describe common
approaches to address motion;
- Understand the
state-of-the-art fast imaging techniques;
- Grasp advanced image
reconstruction algorithms; and
- Identify common artifacts
and understand how to reduce them.
