ISMRM Annual Meeting & Exhibition 2012

The 20th annual meeting of the ISMRM will be held in Melbourne, 5-11 May, 2012.  The theme this year is “Adapting MR in a changing world”.  In our Melbourne plenary lectures, you will learn how a changing world is leading us to adapt MR, whether it is the challenge to redefine what a scanner looks and feels like as we broaden MR’s scope across applications, across technologies, and across continents, or it is the promise to scan faster than we had ever thought possible as we embrace the powerful new theories of compressed sensing.  You will also learn how, as we adapt MRI, we are changing the world.  You will learn about the power of this modality for assessing the microstructure of in-vivo tissue in health and disease, how MRI is transforming our understanding and treatment of psychiatric diseases, and how surgical treatment is being radically changed under the guidance of an MR scanner.
