- Explain clinical benefits of MR perfusion quantifications
| 07:00 | | Perfusion: Technical Yolanda Ohene |
| 07:30 | | Clinical Application of Perfusion MR Imaging Won-Jin Moon Keywords: Image acquisition: Quantification, Contrast mechanisms: Perfusion, Education Committee: Clinical MRI In this lecture, we will dive into the clinical applications of MR perfusion quantification, encompassing both neuroimaging and body imaging. The focus will be on dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) imaging and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) imaging techniques, highlighting their pivotal roles in improving patient diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcome prediction. Participants will gain insights into the versatile applications and inherent advantages of MR perfusion in clinical practice, enabling them to leverage this powerful tool for enhanced patient care. |
