MRI in Practice

MRI in Practice

by Catherine Westbrook (Author)

Synopsis

Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a valuable technology used in diagnostic radiography. The clear, anatomical images which can be produced in any plane, coupled with inherent safety for the patient and long-term cost effectiveness have promoted the use and availability of MRI around the world. This edition provides a comprehensive introduction to MRI, describing the essential concepts and explaining the physics theory of MR in detail. The text has been thoroughly revised and updated with many new illustrations and images. Key topics, including K space and echo planar imaging, have been fully expanded to take account of current practice. Learning points and a questions section aim to help the reader to evaluate their understanding of the text. This book should be of interest to all student and practising radiographers, technologists and radiologists involved in MRI.

Media Reviews
I welcome the new edition in the confidence that it will prove as valuable to readers as did its predecessor. from the Foreword by Dr Stephen Golding, Lecturer in Radiology, University of Oxford A well-written handbook...extremely useful to radiographers training in MR and also to radiologists, particularly those taking fellowship examinations. It would be an ideal book to have in the department for quick and easy reference, and unlike many other radiology books, it is relatively inexpensive. This book is essential for many MRI courses in the UK and USA and is a very popular source of information to radiographers, radiologists and all interested MRI practitioners. This book should have a mandatory place in the department library of all imaging centres with access to MRI RAD Magazine
