Future Virtual Meetings:

Joint Musculoskeletal MR & MR in Spectroscopy Study Group Virtual Meeting

MR Spectroscopy as a Tool for the Study of Skeletal & Cardiac Muscle Physiology

Registration is FREE for members, US$50.00 for non-members.

Moderators: Christoph Juchem, Ph.D. & Hermien Kan, Ph.D.

Phosphorous (31P) MRS allows the non-invasive measurement of tissue energy metabolism and homeostasis in a matter of minutes. In this seminar, the basics of skeletal and cardiac muscle energetics are reviewed, in health and disease, along with 31P MRS methods that allow the quantification and monitoring of key metabolites ATP and phosphocreatine.

The first lecture will be on the importance of study design using contraction protocols, the interpretation of human muscle studies, and the bioenergetics underpinnings of aging and chronic disease. The second lecture will focus on the importance of 7T UHF methodology for whole-heart clinical studies of heart failure and “metabolic modulating” therapies.

ISMRM Virtual Meeting

Environmental Sustainability & MRI

Registration is FREE for members, US$50.00 for non-members.

Moderators: Margaret Hall-Craggs, M.D. & Penny Hubbard Cristinacce, Ph.D.

The goal of this webinar is to discuss environmental sustainability in MRI including an introduction to planetary health and the broad environmental impact of medical imaging, provide an overview of specific and practical actions that can be implemented to improve sustainability in MRI including energy-saving actions and waste reduction, and highlight the role of artificial intelligence and technical innovation to promote sustainability in MRI. The session will include a panel discussion with all speakers with an opportunity for audience engagement and participation.

The ISMRM is committed to providing opportunities for its members to connect, engage and develop. As an ISMRM member, you have access to:

Study Group Virtual Meetings:
A platform for our 34 study groups, established to foster interaction among members with a common interest in topical and active areas of MR. Topics for discussion come from the study groups with discussion and debate promoted by expert moderators, with contributions from the virtual audience. Registration is open to all ISMRM & ISMRT members, with priority given to members of the respective Study Group.

Journal Club Virtual Meetings:
A platform for a dynamic, international, cross-cutting journal club moderated by experts in the field. The papers for discussion come from the Society’s two journals with live access to the authors. Discussion and debate are promoted by expert moderators, with contributions from the virtual audience. Registration is open to all ISMRM & ISMRT members.
