Current Concepts of Motion: Correction for MRI
Current Concepts of Motion: Correction for MRI
A FRIAS Junior Researcher Conference
Date: 16. - 18. December 2013
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a technique used to produce high-quality images of internal tissues in the body and is ideal for assessing the structure and function of the human brain in vivo. However, MRI is very slow and subject motion is a major source of artifacts that can greatly reduce image quality. Recent developments in motion correction have demonstrated that the technique has the potential to aid in solving a significant and relevant problem in MRI. Although numerous challenges remain, the advantages of motion correction suggest that the benefits justify the effort required to develop solutions and that motion correction may become an essential tool for the next-generation of MRI. In this workshop, different motion correction approaches are introduced and recent implementations are reviewed including a discussion and summary of specific advantages and disadvantages. The objective is to bring specialists from different disciplines together to facilitate the translation of these new developments from bench to bedside.
