The ISMRM is committed to: 1. Insuring balance, independent, objectivity, and scientific rigor in all Continuing Medical Education programs, and 2. Presenting CME activities that promote improvements or quality in healthcare and are independent of commercial interests. To ensure balance, independence, objectivity, and scientific rigor in all CME programs it is the policy of the Society that any person who has influence over the content of a program designated for AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM must disclose any real or apparent financial interest or other relationship (i.e., grants, research support, consultant, honoraria) that the individual may have with the manufacturers, distributors or providers of any commercial products or services that may be discussed in the presentation. ISMRM does not imply that such financial interests or relationships are inherently improper or that such interests or relationships would prevent the speaker or organizer from making an objective contribution. However, it is imperative that such financial interests or relationships be identified so that participants at the CME activity may have these facts fully disclosed in advance, and may form their own judgments about the presentations. It remains for the audience to determine whether an individual’s outside interests may reflect a possible bias in either the exposition or the conclusions presented. Following are the names of all speakers, committee members, and other organizers who had influence over the program content. When individuals have disclosed real or apparent financial interests or relationships with regard to the subject matter of this meeting, the interests or relationships are described. If the individual indicated that there were no conflicts, that is shown, as well.
