Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of scan used to diagnose health conditions that affect organs, tissue and bone. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the inside of the body. Divided into two sections, this concise guide introduces radiology trainees to the principles, sequences and interpretation of MRI. The first section describes the basic principles, instrumentation and interpretation of MRI, whilst the second section discusses the higher applications of the technique. Authored by Canadian radiologist Govind Chavhan, this second edition includes 250 images and illustrations, as well as a photo CD, to assist trainees with learning. Key points New edition introducing radiology trainees to principles, sequences and interpretation of MRI Authored by Canadian radiology specialist Features 250 images and illustrations Includes photo CD First edition published in 2007

The underlying physics of magnetic resonance imaging is a topic of considerable importance since a basic understanding is necessary to accurately interpret and generate high quality MR images. Yet it can be a challenging topic in spite of the best efforts of both teachers and students of the subject. Practical MR Physics reviews the basic principles of MR using familiar language and explains the causes of common imaging artifacts and pitfalls. The book will also be a helpful guide during review of clinical cases since the reader can look up specific imaging artifacts or pitfalls in the index. Featuring over 375 high quality images, numerous case examples, and concise, clinically oriented discussion of the physics behind the images, Practical MR Physics is an ideal resource for anyone who works in the field of MR imaging.
