Introduction
This meeting is designed as a unique context aimed at sharing ideas and data on MRI contrast agents research and possible gadolinium toxicity after the administration of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs). We believe that joint international efforts will remain essential to optimize diagnostic efficacy and improve patient safety in MR imaging. Since 2016, the ESMRMB-GREC has adapted the contents of the discussion to current hot topics and has evolved in style even in difficult circumstances imposed by the pandemic restrictions.
This 7th GREC meeting will cover topics that have emerged in the last year regarding: 1. Clinical indications and safety of GBCA-enhanced MRI; 2. The chemical approach to improved MRI-contrast agents; 3. Alternative methods to GBCA-enhancement using artificial intelligence methods; 4. Emissions of GBCAs into the aquatic environment.
GBCAs are a mainstay of clinical MR imaging in the real life. As a working group of experts with multidisciplinary background, we support the MR community with continuous education, information and scientific updates on the use and clinical applications of GBCAs. For this reason, a 1-hour-long educational and interactive session will be streamed as a webinar to reach the larger MRI community of the ESMRMB and beyond.
Objectives
- To share evidence-based state-of-the-art information on specific hot and emerging topics in GBCA-enhanced MR imaging;
- To promote the dissemination of knowledge by means of papers to be published on behalf of the the ESMRMB-GREC working group;
- To discuss on research activities and research funding opportunities.
