The goal of this workshop is to identify and discuss key questions regarding the development and use of dynamic, functional imaging-based tools. The workshop will include small-group discussions during which participants will have the opportunity to present their experiences to be followed by proposing ways for overcoming obstacles to progress in this field.

Axial T1-weighted bilateral thigh MR images and magnified frames providing a closer look at the areas in lateral aspects of quadriceps femoris muscles (knee extensors) from two obese, female participants, aged 58 (A) and 62 years (B), respectively. In A, the thigh muscles on both sides demonstrate abundant fatty streaks, consistent with a high Goutallier grade for this participant, whose diet from the past 12 months consisted of 68% ultraprocessed foods. In B, the thigh muscles show fewer fatty streaks as highlighted in the magnified image, consistent with a low Goutallier grade for this participant, whose diet contained only 36% ultraprocessed foods.

Radiologists can help reduce cycles of intimate partner violence

Radiologists can detect evidence of intimate partner violence before women disclose it and help facilitate earlier interventions to reduce cycles of abuse, according to an RSNA 2024 talk.
