FREC Think Tank
Fe-contrast Research, Education & Clinical translation Think Tank
FREC is an initiative of the Nano Iron Ribbon Foundation to connect expertise in iron-enhanced MRI. Its purpose is to develop a shared research agenda, support education and advance the translation of scientific findings into clinical practice.
Three pillars
Education
Share expertise through workshops, case discussions and practical training in image acquisition and interpretation.
Clinical Translation
Connect imaging research with clinical needs, implementation studies, health-economic evaluation and dialogue with regulatory and reimbursement stakeholders.
Topics for collaboration
Possible working areas include:
- Ferumoxtran MRI for lymph node imaging.
- MR angiography and the long-lasting blood-pool effect.
- Macrophage-related imaging and inflammation research.
- Acquisition protocols, image interpretation and quality assurance.
- Complementarity with gadolinium MRI and molecular imaging.
- Accessibility, implementation and health-economic research.
