Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a 'go-to' reference for
methods and applications of quantitative magnetic resonance
imaging, with specific sections on Relaxometry, Perfusion, and
Diffusion. Each section will start with an explanation of the basic
techniques for mapping the tissue property in question, including a
description of the challenges that arise when using these basic
approaches. For properties which can be measured in multiple ways,
each of these basic methods will be described in separate chapters.
Following the basics, a chapter in each section presents more
advanced and recently proposed techniques for quantitative tissue
property mapping, with a concluding chapter on clinical
applications. The reader will learn: The basic physics behind
tissue property mapping How to implement basic pulse sequences for
the quantitative measurement of tissue properties The strengths and
limitations to the basic and more rapid methods for mapping the
magnetic relaxation properties T1, T2, and T2* The pros and cons
for different approaches to mapping perfusion The methods of
Diffusion-weighted imaging and how this approach can be used to
generate diffusion tensor maps and more complex representations of
diffusion How flow, magneto-electric tissue property, fat fraction,
exchange, elastography, and temperature mapping are performed How
fast imaging approaches including parallel imaging, compressed
sensing, and Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting can be used to
accelerate or improve tissue property mapping schemes How tissue
property mapping is used clinically in different organs
The introduction of techniques that permit visualization of the
human nervous system is one of the foremost advances in
neuroscience and brain-related research. Among the most recent
significant developments in this respect are ultra-high field MRI
and the image post-processing technique known as track density
imaging (TDI). It is these techniques (including super-resolution
TDI) which represent the two major components of 7.0 Tesla MRI -
Brain White Matter Atlas. This second edition of the atlas has been
revised and updated to fully reflect current application of these
technological advancements in order to visualize the nervous system
and the brain with the finest resolution and sensitivity.
Exquisitely detailed color images offer neuroscientists,
neurologists, and neurosurgeons a superb resource that will be of
value both for the purpose of research and for the treatment of
common brain diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and multiple
sclerosis.
