Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to attend the international Imaging in Neuromuscular Disease Conference organized by the MYO-MRI consortium. This interdisciplinary conference was originally planned as a face-to-face event, but due to the pandemic this year’s event will be held online on Monday 8th and Tuesday 9th of November 2021.
The conference program will feature internationally-recognized keynote speakers highlighting developments and advances in key aspects of muscle imaging.
The Imaging in Neuromuscular Disease Conference will be organized by MYO-MRI, a consortium previously supported by COST, the European Cooperation in Science and Technology. MYO-MRI focusses on applications of MR imaging and spectroscopy techniques in neuromuscular disease and has enabled collaboration on MRI as an outcome measure and on pattern recognition for diagnostics and therapy development. The project has addressed the challenges of applying MR techniques in both clinical trials and everyday clinical settings.
The programme will feature the following:
Introduction to Muscle MRI: Mapping Disease Activity
Introduction to Muscle MRI: Quantifying the Chronic Degenerative Changes
Introduction to Clinical NMD
Poster Sessions
The programme also features hot topic talks and Q and A. You are cordially invited to attend this international conference. The conference provides the opportunity to forge new partnerships, learn from the leading and brightest minds in the field and share best practices with leading experts.
We are looking forward to welcoming you and your team at our online event.
Pierre Carlier and Hermien Kan
Chairs, Programme Committee
