The upcoming ISMRM24 conference, taking place on 04 – 09 May 2024 in Singapore, will include a member-initiated session titled “Steps on the Path to Clinical Translation: An International Perspective” on May 9th from 16:00 to 18:00 SGT.
The session aims to build on the experience of the BIC‐ISMRM chapter workshop held in Cardiff in 2022 (https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.29704), by opening the discussion on the challenges and potential solutions for clinical translation of quantitative MR (qMR) imaging and spectroscopic biomarkers to the international ISMRM community.
Attendees will hear the perspectives of 5 key international voices in qMR biomarker translation and have the opportunity to participate in a live, interactive survey throughout the symposium. The results of this survey, specifically designed to capture an international perspective, will be used in ongoing work to define a support framework for the translational pathway of qMR biomarkers.
