Principles of MRI Series

• Number of Lectures: 15
(Principles MRI - 10, Physics MRI - 5)
• Credits Per Lecture: 1.0 - 2.0 CME
Credits for Complete Series: 17.25 CME

PRINCIPLES OF MRI SERIES: In this Principles of MRI DVD Series, Dr. Stephen J. Pomeranz introduces a new "tissue-based" teaching methodology for enhancing MR interpretation skills. Tissue differentiation and clinical diagnosis using the spectrum of MR capabilities is reviewed throughout the body in sequence, rather than a strict anatomic approach to pathology and indications. This series focuses on practical diagnostic tools and state-of-the-art training on how to assess (for example) edema, chronic and acute bone injury, muscles and sports hernias, tendons, fibrocartilage, hyaline cartilage, and ligaments on MR.


WHO SHOULD USE THIS SERIES
Radiologists, primary care physicians, surgeons, MR specialists, sports medicine specialists, referring clinicians

EDUCATIONAL GOAL FOR THIS ACTIVITY
Dr. Stephen J. Poemranz's Principles of MRI Series: This professionally produced, interactive series features lectures covering the principles of MRI and teaches diagnosis and interpretation skills. It also helps physicians understand how MR best fits into the diagnostic algorithm for patient care.

OBJECTIVES
Participants who complete this activity should be able to identify normal anatomy and variations, as well as pathology of the musculoskeletal system. They should be able to recognize indications and applications of magnetic resonance imaging and other advanced imaging modalities for abnormalities of bone and soft tissues. This series will also discuss a multidisciplinary approach to patient management allowing for practice improvement and better patient care.


 

PHYSICS OF MRI SERIES: The comprehensive Physics of MRI Series covers the molecular basis for magnetic resonance imaging, including the relaxation properties of protons. Viewers of lectures in this series will know the parameters needed for different pulse sequences; recognize the strengths and weaknesses of various pulse sequences, and understand their applications in a clinical setting; and recognize artifacts commonly associated with MR imaging.
