Princeton, NJ – November 23, 2021– Guerbet LLC, the US affiliate of Guerbet, a global leader in medical imaging, is pleased to be exhibiting in Booth 1711 at the RSNA 2021 Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting and to share its continued partnership with the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) through the awarding of its Guerbet Research Scholar Grant. After a thorough review of hundreds of grant applications, the RSNA Research & Education (R&E) Foundation Board of Trustees awarded $3.2 million in funding to Hersh Sagreiya, MD, with the University of Pennsylvania, to pursue research on Automated Hepatic Fat Quantification Using Machine Learning.
