Key topics:

  • Interpretation of muscle MRI and important anatomical landmarks
  • The utility of muscle MRI when investigating muscle pain and assessing response to therapies
  • Pattern recognition for various genetic and inflammatory myopathies
  • Tips on how to distinguish myopathic from neurogenic processes based on muscle MRI appearances

Delegates will be invited to present challenging cases during this workshop and there will be the opportunity for general discussion.
