DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the "International Workshop on MRI Phase Contrast and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) Techniques and Applications" is to provide a forum for researchers interested in MRI signal phase and QSM. Magnetic susceptibility is a major tissue property that changes with organ function, disease and intervention, but still remains largely unexplored in MRI because of the difficulties in determinin susceptibility distribution. Recently there have been a number of breakthroughs in reconstructing tissue susceptibility for QSM and in applying QSM in neurological diseases. There has been an exploding interest in the scientific community in QSM because it offers a new area for applying physics and mathematics to study a new tissue property. A major goal of this QSM workshop is to provide scientists from various backgrounds the opportunity to build connections, pool their knowledge, and educate students and fellow scientists, so as to catalyze the developments of QSM technology and the translation of QSM into clinical practice. Accordingly we organize topics for this workshop to include basic and advanced discussions on the biophysics of tissue susceptibility, QSM reconstruction algorithms, and clinical and scientific applications. We plan to achieve these workshop goals through the following three specific aims: 1) Bring together scientists from varied backgrounds including physics, applied mathematics, biology and medicine to promote cross-fertilization of ideas on technical developments and clinical applications and to identify and emphasize the methodologies that bear the potential to innovate QSM technology and its future clinical uses. 2) Foster collaborative relationships among researchers from multi-centers to work on QSM technology standardization and accuracy assessment that are essential for clinical applications. 3) Educate young scientists (students, postdocs and junior investigators) and scientists with different backgrounds on the fundamentals and state-of-the-art of QSM technology. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This proposed "International Workshop on MRI Phase Contrast and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) Techniques and Applications" is to provide a forum for researchers interested in MRI signal phase and QSM to build connections, pool their knowledge, and educate students and fellow scientists, so as to catalyze the developments of QSM technology and the translation of QSM into clinical practice.

描述(申请人提供)：“MRI相位对比和定量磁化率成像(QSM)技术和应用国际研讨会”的目的是为对MRI信号相位和QSM感兴趣的研究人员提供一个论坛。磁化率是一种主要的组织属性，它随器官功能、疾病和干预而变化，但由于确定磁化率分布的困难，MRI仍在很大程度上未被探索。近年来，在重建QSM的组织敏感性和将QSM应用于神经系统疾病方面取得了一些突破。科学界对QSM的兴趣与日俱增，因为它为应用物理学和数学来研究一种新的组织性质提供了一个新的领域。本次QSM研讨会的一个主要目标是为来自不同背景的科学家提供建立联系、积累知识和教育学生和科学家同事的机会，以促进QSM技术的发展和QSM转化为临床实践。因此，我们组织了这次研讨会的主题，包括关于组织易感性的生物物理学、QSM重建算法以及临床和科学的基础和高级讨论。 申请。我们计划通过以下三个具体目标来实现这些研讨会目标：1)将来自不同背景的科学家聚集在一起，包括物理、应用数学、生物学和医学，以促进技术发展和临床应用方面的思想交流，并确定和强调具有创新QSM技术及其未来临床应用潜力的方法。2)促进来自多个中心的研究人员之间的合作关系，以致力于QSM技术标准化和准确性评估，这对临床应用至关重要。3)对青年科学家(学生、博士后和初级研究人员)和具有不同背景的科学家进行QSM技术基础和最新技术的培训。 公共卫生意义：本次提出的“MRI相位对比和定量磁化率测绘(QSM)技术及应用国际研讨会”旨在为对MRI信号期和QSM感兴趣的研究人员提供一个建立联系、汇聚知识和教育学生和科学家同事的论坛，以促进QSM技术的发展和QSM转化为临床实践。
