Overview & Program

Workshop Overview

This workshop is the 5th in a series of Sedona workshops and updated to reflect new trends in MRI. We will continue to explore the practical boundaries of new and unconventional methods for collecting data (pulse sequences), and for reconstructing images from that data. This will include constrained reconstruction such as compressed sensing, quantitative imaging, image evaluation and reproducibility, non‐Cartesian methodologies, and parallel imaging, with the addition of deep learning and data‐informed design of sampling and reconstruction. We will explore the challenges to these methods, how to measure and characterize them, and methods (both available and necessary to develop) to overcome them.

Target Audience: This workshop is targeted toward engineers, physicists, technically-inclined radiologists, clinicians, and technologists, and others interested in the latest trends in MRI data collection and reconstruction techniques.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:

  • Explain the rationale for collecting MRI data in different sampling patterns;
  • Describe at least three ways to reconstruct incomplete data;
  • Predict how upcoming changes in data sampling and reconstruction may alter the practice of radiology;
  • Explain the need for a better framework for evaluating new technology and give three examples of possible components of that framework; and
  • Identify four different types of quantitative MRI methods.

Looking for something to do after the workshop? All workshop attendees and their guests are invited to an informal gathering in Phoenix at Jim Pipe’s house on the evening of Wednesday, Jan 29. You will be responsible for your own transportation, but food will be provided - more information will be provided at the workshop. This is a chance to unwind with friends before your evening flight, or if you are staying in a Phoenix hotel that night.
