Advances in Pediatric MRI: From the Highs to the Lows

In this archived one hour OAMRS Wednesday Webinar presentation, Dr. Sean Deoni, PhD, Senior Program Officer at the Gates Foundation, provides an overview of the use of MRI to characterize neurodevelopment from fetal through adolescent development and its relationship to a child's living environment. He then explores differences in development across the world, including many low and middle income settings, introducing the use of new low-field strength MRI scanners. Building on these results, he
