Quantitative MRI (qMRI) & Brain Mapping

Training Overview

Quantitative MRI (qMRI) & Brain Mapping Training is an advanced, simulation-based educational program designed for neuroradiologists, neuroscientists, and imaging professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of quantitative MRI methods and their applications in brain structure and function analysis. This two-day course integrates theoretical knowledge with hands-on simulations to build expertise in tissue property quantification, parametric mapping, and clinical interpretation.

The program begins with a comprehensive overview of the physical principles behind quantitative MRI, including relaxation time mapping (T1, T2, T2*), proton density, diffusion, and magnetization transfer imaging. Participants learn how qMRI enables objective, reproducible, and quantitative assessment of tissue characteristics beyond conventional qualitative MRI.

Hands-on sessions immerse attendees in the process of generating and analyzing quantitative maps using advanced neuroimaging software. Simulation exercises cover multi-parametric acquisitions, voxel-wise modeling, and automated segmentation for cortical and subcortical structures.

Through interactive workshops, participants gain experience in quantitative brain mapping for clinical and research applications—such as demyelination, neurodegeneration, tumor characterization, and functional connectivity assessment. Special sessions explore AI-assisted quantitative analysis, normalization, and integration with multimodal imaging datasets.

By the end of the course, participants will possess both the technical and analytical skills to design, process, and interpret quantitative MRI data, supporting precision neuroimaging in both clinical and research environments.
