 will be the first ISMRM-sponsored workshop on fat-water MRI. Research 
 in diseases that involve abnormal fat accumulation in organs, muscles,
  and various body depots has increased significantly in recent years, 
 motivated partly by the rising prevalence of obesity worldwide. Over t
 he last decade, algorithms that robustly suppress fat and those design
 ed to accurately separate fat and water based on chemical-shift MRI ha
 ve been developed, as interest in fat-water separation methods grows s
 ignificantly.\nThe purpose of this workshop is to bring together inter
 nationally-recognized clinicians and researchers to review insights, p
 rogress, and findings in fat suppression and fat-water MRI over the pa
 st 30 years. It will cover the latest discoveries in qualitative fat-w
 ater separation and quantitative fat methodologies. Attendees will col
 lectively identify unsolved challenges and applications that need to b
 e further addressed, as well as discuss appropriate validation techniq
 ues, implementation considerations, and the consistent use and reporti
 ng of methodology and fat metrics in literature. The workshop will int
 egrate educational presentations encompassing a wide array of technica
 l and clinical topics. A poster session will promote interaction among
 st young and established investigators. Moderated sessions will compre
 hensively cover mathematical theory, performance limits, and data reco
 nstruction algorithms of fat-water imaging, as well as highlight new d
 iagnostic applications and future research opportunities.\nSelf Assess
