For some 10 years, intra-operative MRI has been a reality.
Many of us who have adopted this technology believe passionately
in its utility and potential. We seek a framework in which
the pros and cons of various technical approaches can be discussed
and knowledge shared. To this end, the IOI Society has been
formed.
Our first meeting will be held immediately
after the PoleStar User's Meeting in February 2008. While
the formation of the Society and our first annual meeting
have been generously underwritten by Medtronic Navigation,
let it be clear the purpose of the Society is not to promote
any particular technology used for intraoperative imaging.
We look forward to seeing PoleStar users and all other users
if iMRI, iCT, iUS and iXR at our meeting in February.
Michael Schulder, MD
Vice-President, IOIS
