Synopsis

In the last decades, MRI added value to diagnosing movement disorders has constantly increased. In this talk, the milestones and limitations of existing approaches are reviewed, emerging MR technologies for movement disorders are presented, and possible solutions to overcome existing limitations are proposed. The audience will learn to: i) describe the current status of imaging biomarkers in observational and interventional research of movement disorders; ii) describe advanced imaging techniques for diagnosis and management of movement disorders in a clinical and research environment/context; iii) identify appropriate imaging sequences to address given clinical questions in movement disorders

Overview
