Contents:
Spin and the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Phenomenon -- Relaxation -- Image Contrast -- Slice Selection and Spatial Encoding -- Factors Affecting the Signal-to-Noise Ratio -- The MR Scanner -- Basic Pulse Sequences -- Fast Pulse Sequences -- Fat Suppression Techniques -- Parallel Imaging -- Cardiovascular Imaging -- MR Contrast Agents -- MR Artifacts -- High-Field Clinical MR Imaging -- Bioeffects and Safety.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: This thoroughly revised second edition succinctly introduces the physics and function of magnetic resonance imaging. All important and clinically relevant aspects are presented in a clearly structured manner. The emphasis is on practical information including the latest trends and developments that are relevant for MRI in the clinical setting. The opening chapters describe the underlying physical principles of the MR experiment and the basic pulse sequences commonly used in clinical MRI. Other chapters are dedicated to more advanced techniques such as parallel imaging and cardiovascular MR imaging. The book is rounded out by chapters on MR contrast media, artifacts, high-field imaging, and safety concerns. An extensive glossary offers rapid access to the most important MRI terminology. The book is intended for readers looking for an easy to understand and concise introduction to this fascinating yet somewhat complex imaging modality at the beginning of their MRI training.
