How To Sessions

In addition to the Technical Exhibition, the leadership of the ASNR is pleased to announce the ninth annual slate of instructional How-To forums. These sessions, presented in conjunction with major corporate contributors, deal with advances in imaging and procedures as well as principles in neuroradiology and image information management. How- To Luncheon Sessions are scheduled Sunday, May 21 through Wednesday, May 25. How-To Breakfast Sessions are scheduled Monday, May 23 through Thursday, May 26. Again in 2005, How-To Session programming will be offered during specific breakfast, lunch and reception sessions.

The How-To Sessions offer a unique opportunity for neuroradiologists to discuss techniques, procedures, and products with their colleagues as well as with technical specialists from the imaging industry. Comments and suggestions from meeting registrants over the last eight years were integrated into this year's format. The sessions vary and include both didactic presentations and demonstrations, all with a strong practical emphasis. A significant portion of each session is devoted to questions and answers. Indications, problems, and solutions relating to imaging techniques will be addressed including advances in helical CTA, CT perfusion, MDCT applications and MRI of the brain.
