Whole Body MRI: Separating Facts from Hype

In Episode #17 of the Everything MRI podcast we dive into 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞-𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲, a radiation free, multiparametric approach that is rapidly changing how clinicians 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞, 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞.

Our guest is Dr Nina Tunariu, Consultant Radiologist at 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐝𝐞𝐧, shares clinical insights from a leading cancer centre and discusses when whole-body MRI should be considered instead of, or alongside, other imaging modalities.

Dr. Tunariu explains in detail common scan protocols for whole-body imaging and the pivotal role of 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧-𝐰𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 (DWI) for detection and monitoring of cancer.

She is also focusing on potential 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 and the need for 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 across centres.

We also examine the implications for 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬, 𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬 and 𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡, with a focus on reproducibility in different settings (public and private).

Whether you are a radiographer, radiologist, oncologist, physicist or another member of the healthcare team, we are sure you will find this episode full of 𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞-𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 that you can apply immediately.
