OVERVIEW
Initiated in 2023, the We Are One session is a special session featuring topics at the core of “One Community.” We are clinicians, scientists, radiographers, engineers, residents, fellows, and much more. We are united in our mission to advance magnetic resonance in medicine and science. This year, we focus on the patients from Singapore sharing their experience with MRI.

As we develop and apply technology, we are often very focused on single tasks. Some of us are inventing new hardware or devising new pulse sequences. Others are poring through data, looking for patterns that will improve our understanding or diagnostic capabilities. Still others are testing new methods in animals to understand biology, or to new contrast mechanisms. Finally, the radiographers and physicians amongst us are working with patients. Further beyond the imaging result is the overall patient experience: what was it like to have your first MRI? How were the results presented to you, and how did this change your overall experience?

Today, several patients from Singapore will recount their stories by video and through live presentation. This is a chance to remind ourselves of why we do what we do and a chance to reexamine our priorities in research and practice.


TARGET AUDIENCE
This session is intended for all members of ISMRM and ISMRT at all levels.

OBJECTIVE
To recount patient experiences with MRI in Singapore so that we may better understand how and when our techniques are applied and how they impact patients.
