Our goal is for this seminar to be the first in a series of annual MR meetings in the region. The topics covered will be accessible to a general audience of engineers, radiologists and medical physicists, and by the end of the seminar the participants should be able to:

•  Explain the basics of MR Physics.

•  Apply a variety of basic and advanced MRI sequences in a clinical and research setting.

•  Realize the potential for combining MRI with research areas as diverse as Signal processing, Networks and Ultrastructural Imaging.

•  Start collaborative projects with MR professionals from neighboring countries in order to lay the foundations of a local MR society.

Please note that all registered participants will receive 14.5 CME credit. Presenters will receive 18.5 CME credits.
