New edition explores contemporary MRI principles and practices
Thoroughly revised, updated and expanded, the second edition of
"Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Physical Principles and Sequence
Design" remains the preeminent text in its field. Using consistent
nomenclature and mathematical notations throughout all the
chapters, this new edition carefully explains the physical
principles of magnetic resonance imaging design and implementation.
In addition, detailed figures and MR images enable readers to
better grasp core concepts, methods, and applications.
"Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Second Edition" begins with an
introduction to fundamental principles, with coverage of
magnetization, relaxation, quantum mechanics, signal detection and
acquisition, Fourier imaging, image reconstruction, contrast,
signal, and noise. The second part of the text explores MRI methods
and applications, including fast imaging, water-fat separation,
steady state gradient echo imaging, echo planar imaging,
diffusion-weighted imaging, and induced magnetism. Lastly, the text
discusses important hardware issues and parallel imaging.
Readers familiar with the first edition will find much new
material, including: New chapter dedicated to parallel imagingNew
sections examining off-resonance excitation principles, contrast
optimization in fast steady-state incoherent imaging, and efficient
lower-dimension analogues for discrete Fourier transforms in echo
planar imaging applicationsEnhanced sections pertaining to Fourier
transforms, filter effects on image resolution, and Bloch equation
solutions when both rf pulse and slice select gradient fields are
presentValuable improvements throughout with respect to equations,
formulas, and textNew and updated problems to test further the
readers' grasp of core concepts
Three appendices at the end of the text offer review material
for basic electromagnetism and statistics as well as a list of
acquisition parameters for the images in the book.
Acclaimed by both students and instructors, the second edition
of "Magnetic Resonance Imaging" offers the most comprehensive and
approachable introduction to the physics and the applications of
magnetic resonance imaging.
