Masterclass In Oncological Whole-Body Mri
Price: Free
Faculty: Prof. Dow-Mu Koh, Prof. Anwar Padhani, Prof. Giuseppe Petralia, Prof. Christina Messiou, Dr. Nina Tunariu
This second edition Masterclass in Oncological Whole-Body MRI will be delivered online, over two half-days as a workstation-based teaching course. We will provide a foundational understanding of this specialised technique, imaging optimisation and application for both disease detection and incidental findings in the setting of cancer screening. A focus on myeloma will also highlight patterns of disease.
Overview
This second edition Masterclass in Oncological Whole-Body MRI will be delivered online, over two half-days as a workstation-based teaching course. We will provide a foundational understanding of this specialised technique, imaging optimisation and application for both disease detection and incidental findings in the setting of cancer screening. A focus on myeloma will also highlight patterns of disease.
The comparative value of utilising WB-MRI for the detection of breast and prostate cancer will be demonstrated, along with its use for response assessment in bone disease. Our expert faculty have extensive clinical knowledge and experience of WB-MRI, and delegates will benefit from mentored hands-on case-based learning with individual workstations. Between 35-40 brand new cases will be reviewed, each chosen to illustrate specific learning points, all summarised in a comprehensive workbook which will be posted to your specified address before the course.
To achieve optimum experience from this interactive course, two screens, one with a camera are required. Please refer to the joining instructions for full details.
Learning Objectives
- To learn how to perform and read WB-MRI scans for disease detection and response assessments.
- To understand how WB-MRI can help maintain health by early disease detection and disease characterisation using the ONCO-RADS standard.
- To discuss guidelines and benefits of WB-MRI in multiple myeloma using the MY-RADS standard.
- To learn about the detection and bone response benefits of WB-MRI in prostate and breast cancer using the MET-RADS standard.

Meet The Speakers
Prof Dow-Mu Koh
Prof
Prof. Koh obtained his primary medical degree in Singapore (1989). Following further training in internal medicine and diagnostic radiology, he was awarded the fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologist (UK) in 1996. He was appointed to the position of Consultant Radiologist in Functional Imaging at the Royal Marsden Hospital in January 2008 and was conferred the title of Professor in Functional Cancer Imaging at the Institute of Cancer Research in 2015. Prof. Koh’s current clinical and research interest is in the development and application of functional imaging techniques for tumour assessment. He has a particular interest in developing and evaluating diffusion-weighted MR imaging in the body (DWI), to enhance and improve the ability to detect and characterise tumours, as well as to monitor the effects of conventional and novel therapeutics. Prof. Koh is the Imaging Theme Lead for the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Biomedical Research Centre at the Royal Marsden Hospital and Institute of Cancer Research. In 2015, he was appointed a member of the National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) Imaging Biomarker Advisory Board in the UK. In addition to his research, Prof. Koh lectures regularly at numerous conferences and courses, including the European Congress of Radiology (ECR), European School of Radiology (ESOR), European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR), International Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine meetings (ISMRM) and the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) meetings. He was named outstanding teacher by the ISMRM in 2008, 2009 and 2012. Prof. Koh was elected a Fellow of the International Cancer Imaging Society (ICIS) (2007) and appointed Honorary Treasurer of the Society in 2011. He is series organiser for the ICIS interactive courses, a hands-on teaching course; and also the course organiser of the Body DWI course on behalf of the ESMRMB School of MRI. Prof. Koh is currently an associate editor for Radiology, and also reviews regularly for other radiological and medical journals. He was awarded the Barclay Medal in 2013 for his contributions to the British Journal of Radiology. Prof. Koh has had numerous publications in peer reviewed journals and textbooks. In 2009 he co-edited a book, ‘Diffusion-weighted MRI: Applications in the Body’, published by Springer.
Prof Anwar Padhani
Prof. Anwar Padhani is an internationally recognised oncological radiologist at Mount Vernon Cancer Centre, London, UK. He serves as Professor of Cancer Imaging at the Institute of Cancer Research, London, and is a fellow of the International Cancer Imaging Society. He previously chaired the International Prostate PI-RADS committee. Prof. Padhani is deeply committed to education, having delivered over 450 lectures at scientific and educational meetings, including several plenary talks. His contributions have earned him numerous awards, including the Outstanding Teacher Award from ISMRM and multiple RSNA Honored Educator Awards. Active on social media via X (formerly Twitter) @ProfPadhani, he also shares his lectures for free on his YouTube channel. With a remarkable h-index of 93, Prof. Padhani has authored over 500 citable works, including contributions to 33 textbooks, 30 case reports, commentaries, and editorials, alongside 100 educational and scientific reviews and more than 200 original scientific articles in PubMed-indexed journals. His work has garnered over 86,000 reads and more than 32,000 citations.
