Myositis and myopathy
Ana Isabel Garcia Diez, Barcelona / Spain
1. To list the more frequent inflammatory and hereditary myopathies with their clinical characteristics.
2. To apply the whole-body MRI to assess disease activity and extension of the changes, to identify the target site for biopsy, as monitoring tool and to evaluate related pathologies.
3. To identify some specific MRI patterns associated with individual phenotypes.
4. To critique some MRI limitations.
5. To integrate functional and quantitative MRI techniques with a potential role in the evaluation of the myopathies.
