Dear All
I'm mailing to ask for your assistance. At this year's ISMRM in Montreal, we're running a session
called 'What Went Wrong?' (a.k.a. The Artefacts Game Show). This will be a highly interactive
session where an artefact is presented on the screen and selected members from the audience will
get to 'compete' for identifying the most number of artefacts correctly.
Once the artefact is guessed correctly, there will then be an explanation of what caused the
artefact - and what the solution might be.
To this end......we're asking for your help. Please search around for artefacts in your data (I
couldn't find any in mine!) and contribute to the session. Ideally, we'd like you to be prepared
for 2 minutes of fame - to also provide the explanation and the potential fix. (Although - if
you're keen to submit an artefact, but not keen to present - that's fine too - just let us know)
Some examples to get you thinking (courtesy of Charlie McKenzie), follow at the end of the email.
At this stage, I'd be really grateful if you could just mail me with the subject header 'ISMRM
ARTEFACT', a brief description of the artefact, and whether you'd be willing to present.
I was keen to get you thinking about this. For those who respond, I will send a 'template' slide -
so that we can ensure some form of uniformity.
Many thanks in advance for helping out with this
Derek
