Advanced MRI Techniques in Dementia

Sven Haller, Geneva / Switzerland

This session explores cutting-edge MRI techniques that move beyond conventional structural imaging — including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI), SWI/QSM and arterial spin labeling (ASL). Participants will learn from Dr. Haller how these advanced methods reveal microstructural and functional brain alterations in dementia, offering valuable insights to support diagnosis and clinical decision-making.
