Session Number: SMRT-35
Overview
This session will include presentations on the clinical translation of diffusion tensor imaging, compressed sensing, and MRI hardware developments. Recent advances and applications of DTI (and HARDI techniques) and the associated impact to patient care in the clinical setting will be discussed. Following this, the clinical use of compressed sensing, where it has the capacity to greatly reduce acquisition times and enable new capabilities for 3D imaging, will be addressed. Lastly, the design process for an orthopaedic scale superconducting 1.5 T MRI magnet will be briefly described, as well as different options for cooling superconducting magnets, including a cryogen-free cooling solution. Emerging applications using superconducting magnets with reduced infrastructural requirements to improve accessibility of MRI will be mentioned.
Target Audience
Radiographers, MR technologists, radiologists, clinicians, and scientists interested in advanced imaging techniques
Educational Objectives
As a result of attending this course, participants should be able to:
1. Summarize the recent advances and applications of DTI (and HARDI techniques), the challenges encountered, and available solutions.
2. Describe implications of compressed sensing in the clinical setting.
3. Identify new magnet technologies, e.g. very low liquid helium or zero helium scanners, and how these can aid access to health care.
