About The Meeting
Musculoskeletal MRI is commonly used to diagnose and characterize acute and repetitive stress-related orthopedic injuries, degenerative and inflammatory disease, and tumors of bone and soft tissue. The focus of this unique symposium is a review of orthopedic MRI applications and techniques along with a comprehensive discussion of MRI findings in a variety of musculoskeletal disorders. Information acquired during this symposium is designed to improve diagnostic capabilities and expand clinical applications.

** Technologist: Category A CE credit is NOT available for this symposium. **

Thus, it should be particularly helpful for radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, and rheumatologists. This CME activity should also be useful for referring physicians who order these studies so that they might gain a greater appreciation of the strengths and limitations of clinically relevant musculoskeletal MRI studies.
