Clinical MR Imaging and Physics

This book is a complete introduction to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and is addressed to a wide audience. It is composed of two complementary parts, dealing with the physics and the clinical aspects of MRI.The theoretical background of MRI is presented in a clear, direct and succinct manner. Material not vital to routine clinical work is omitted or skimmed over. The second part is a novel approach to clinical MRI that stimulates the reader's thinking. The emphasis is on the mental steps that lead clinicians to a complete and meaningful diagnosis.
