We are happy to invite you to join the Philips Nordic MR Forum 2020 on Clinical Neuroradiology MRI on 11th – 12th May 2020.
Each year, Philips hosts a Nordic MR Forum, which is intended to inspire and educate on the latest MR innovations within a clinical setting. It is organized in collaboration with a leading Nordic clinical partner, where a select group of Nordic and International speakers share their best practices and latest innovations. The event also provides great opportunities for peer-to-peer networking and knowledge sharing.
This year, the Forum has been organized in collaboration with Professor of Neuroradiology at Sahlgrenska Academy - Isabella M. Björkman-Burtscher, where the focus will be on Neuroradiology in MRI. Topics in focus will be brain perfusion, AI, pediatric and epilepsy all seen from a Neuroradiology perspective. After the regular Forum event, we will host 3 parallel deep-dive sessions on MR Safety, MR Physics and MR Applications.
The meeting is aimed at radiologists, physicians and researchers and others interested in applying the latest MR innovations in their clinical practice. The meeting is also aimed at encouraging teamwork and patient centered care. The meeting will be held in English.
