The 5th International Imaging in Neuromuscular Disease Conference organised by the MYO-MRI+ consortium will be held in Berlin, Germany, from 9 to 11 November 2025.
This conference aims to promote exchanges between radiologists, neurologists, biologists, physicists, engineers and other scientists involved in neuromuscular imaging, with a particular but not exclusive focus on MRI and spectroscopy.
The main topics selected for MYO-MRI+ 2025 are muscle MRI as an endpoint in clinical trials, the evolution of imaging diagnostic models in muscular dystrophies, and emerging imaging techniques.
Our experts from the NMR and Spectroscopy Laboratory will present their latest work:
