“Attention to Detail: High-Resolution Bone Imaging and Bariatric Surgery"

The Anne Klibanski Visiting Lecture Series was created to support and advance the careers of women. These lectures bring together faculty from institutions that have hosted Anne Klibanski Scholars with MGH scholars, on topics that overlap both research areas.

Presenters:
Galateia Kazakia, PhD, Associate Professor in Residence in the Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, University of California, San Francisco
Elaine Yu, MD, MMSc, Assistant Professor in Medicine, Endocrine Unit, MGH/HMS

Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the quantification and interpretation of bone quality assessment parameters.
  • Understand the benefits of 3D volumetric bone imaging over traditional 2D assessment
  • Understand standard high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) analysis techniques and explore advanced analysis options
  • Illustrate the clinical consequences of bariatric surgery on the skeleton using advanced imaging techniques
