Agenda & Registration: ISMRM Sim4Life User Workshop 2025

We are very happy to invite you to our annual Sim4Life User Workshop, which will happen at ISMRM 2025  in Honolulu, Hawaii, on Tuesday, May 13, 2025, at the Hibiscus II Room, Ala Moana Hotel from 6:30 – 10:00 pm (including catered reception). Agenda and registration information below!

We will also continue our series of Booth Talks @ISMRM with live demos of Sim4Life by our ZMT experts, this year supplemented by presentations from Sim4Life users. Our Booth Talks will be held Monday to Thursday (May 12–15), from 12:30 to 1:15 pm at Booth #B13. No registration is required – just stop by!

In our annual Sim4Life User Workshops, invited experts present the latest advancements in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology. The speakers include Ji Chen (University of Houston), Kyoko Fujimoto (GE Healthcare), Shao Che (United Imaging), Özlem Ipek (King's College London), Magdy Iskander (University of Hawaii), and Tolga Goren (IT’IS Foundation).

Shao will present the latest results from United Imaging’s 5T Jupiter system, which has now received CE, NMPA, and FDA approvals.

Kyoko will tell us about the latest trends in MRI safety evaluations, and the applications of computational modeling and simulation for vendors as well as for regulatory bodies.

Ji will introduce new findings on the potential risk of unintended vagus nerve stimulation in MRI environments, emphasizing the need for safety considerations in patients with implantable vagus nerve stimulators.

Özlem will present a short study on the Virtual Observation Point (VOP) process, and how the solution currently implemented in Sim4Life will benefit other Sim4Life users.

Magdy will step outside the world of MRI to introduce us to the use of radio frequency technologies to redefine cardiopulmonary monitoring – from non-invasive chest-patch stethoscopes to novel intracardiac virtual catheters.

Finally, Tolga will introduce the tools and procedures developed by the IT’IS Foundation and ZMT for implant safety assessment in low-field MRI.

The detailed agenda is available here.
