Book Description
This comprehensive and concise reference will serve as a handy clinical how-to guide to the fundamentals of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for all practicing radiologists or residents not formally trained in MRI. The authors have organized all the essential information and facts in a reader-friendly, understandable manner, providing a solid foundation for anyone wishing to rapidly learn the basics of how to evaluate magnetic resonance images. The guide presents general concepts without dwelling on rigorous physics or occasional exceptions to the rules, and it defines the standard terms and describes the protocols required for easy recognition of characteristic MR appearances. Sections of the book cover image construction and analysis for the central nervous system (brain and spine); the body (neck, thorax and cardiac, abdomen, and pelvis); and the musculoskeletal system (joints and other bone and soft-tissue processes). An additional section focuses on artifacts.
