FREE Webinar - Implementing Low-Field, Point-of-Care MR Imaging in Critical Care
About this Program
This webinar will provide insight and education on a hospital’s early experience with ultra-low-field, point-of-care MRI technology and an overview of how it has impacted patients in critical care and neuro-interventional neurosurgery.
Additionally, the presenters will discuss the impact of imaging at the patient’s bedside, neuroradiology’s interpretation of patient scans, and how point-of-care imaging can influence the course of care for critical patients.
*This presentation is for informational purposes only for Physicians and is not a CME-earning session.
Educational Objectives
To provide insight and expertise on how ultra-low-field, point-of-care MRI can support decision-making by providing access to neuroimaging at a time when:
- A patient’s condition may present adverse event risks that make transport a challenge
- Imaging is unavailable due to staffing or scanner availability
- Imaging is an option that clinicians would not have previously considered
At the conclusion of this webinar, attendees will be able to:
- Understand how point-of-care MRI can impact critical decision-making for ICU patients or patients transported to the ICU for postoperative observation
- Understand the value of easily accessible imaging and its role in physician decision-making
- Understand how point-of-care MRI provides different information than seen with CT scans and why this matters to ICU patients
