The Masterclass by IFCN presentations were created in response to a call from IFCN members societies for more high quality, complimentary, online educational content. The series will provide a new presentation every month from top clinical neurophysiologists around the world, and each will include time for discussion with the lecturer following the presentation.
Providing the best in contemporary clinical neurophysiology education delivered in the most optimal format is the primary educational goal of the IFCN. As such, Masterclass by IFCN will be available complimentary to all registrants.
The Masterclass by IFCN presentation:
Frontiers of Neuromuscular Imaging: A Closer Look at Peripheral Nerve and Muscle,
will take place on Saturday, May 30, 2026 at 8:00 AM (EST)
Dr. Lisa Hobson-Webb is a Professor of Neurology /Neuromuscular at duke University in Durham, North Carolina, USA. Dr. Hobson-Webb currently serves as Director of the Neuromuscular Ultrasound Program, and is Director of the Duke Neuroscience Clinical Research medicine.
She is the President of AANEM (American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine)
Professor Lisa Hobson-Webb will present
“Frontiers of Neuromuscular Imaging”
The presentation will provide an understanding of how ultrasound currently augments assessment of neuromuscular disorders, while acknowledging its limitations. Looking toward the future, we will discuss ongoing research to address those gaps, including ultra-high frequency ultrasound, shear wave elastography, optoacoustic imaging and the incorporation of artificial intelligence
