MEETING DESCRIPTION:
----About the Meeting
A fundamental focus of the Clinical Magnetic Resonance Society is continuing education for medical professionals actively engaged in the practice of MRI. The annual meeting is an outstanding teaching forum with emphasis on practical, clinical information that can immediately be put into daily use. An outstanding faculty chosen for their teaching ability and dedication to the CMRS mission will discuss common and unique pathologies, appropriate protocols and new developments.

----Target Audience
This CME activity is primarily intended and designed to educate diagnostic imaging physicians who supervise and interpret MRI studies and technologists who perform MRI. However, this meeting is also of great benefit for referring physicians who order these studies, so that they may gain a greater appreciation for the uses, strengths and limitations of clinical MRI.

----Educational Objectives
Attendees should, at the completion of this course, be able to:

Recognize and evaluate a wide variety of musculoskeletal anatomy and pathology using MRI

Understand the utility of MRI and MRA in the evaluation of the brain and spinal axis

Describe the ability of MRI and MRA to diagnose multiple abnormalities of body and cardiovascular system

Understand the current diagnostic and interventional guidelines for MRI in breast disease

Describe the physical principles of basic and advanced MRI/MRA and use those principles to enhance image quality

Discuss socio-economic issues affecting diagnostic radiology and their impact on clinical practice

No special educational preparation is required for this CME activity.
