About this Program

This webinar is geared to technologists who want to learn about new MRI techniques, protocols and updates for 2022. This webinar will have a session on Artificial Intelligence, MRI Image Quality, and room shielding (RF & Magnetic). You will also learn new techniques and updates for pediatric and vascular imaging. There will be a session on sports medicine, and a discussion on rectal imaging.

Educational Objectives

At the conclusion of this webinar, the participants should be able to:

  • Describe ACR and FDA best practices for MRI
  • Apply techniques to manage behavioral challenges of pediatric patients
  • Discuss protocol differences for pediatric patients in MRI
  • Discuss current and future uses and benefits of artificial intelligence in MRI
  • Understand the goals for application of  pulse sequence and parameters for imaging sports medicine cases
  • Describe image quality factors for contrast resolution in optimizing protocols
  • Identify rectal anatomy and adapt protocols and pulse sequences for rectal imaging
