The progress of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a clinical toolhas been extraordinary, out-stripping the rate of development ofany other imaging technique. There has been a huge increase in thepractical applications of MRI techniques and its uses look likelyto extend even further with the development of high speed gradientsand pulse sequences.
The Handbook of MRI Technique has proved highly successful inguiding the uninitiated through scanning techniques and helpingmore experienced technologists to improve image quality. The thirdedition of this highly successful book has been fully revised andupdated to consider new technologies and developments essential togood practice.
The book is split into two parts. Part 1 considers the mainaspects of theory that relate to scanning and also includespractical tips on gating, equipment use, patient care and safety,and information on contrast media. Part 2 provides step by stepinstruction for examining each anatomical area, beginning with abasic anatomy section, followed by sections on indications, patientpositioning, equipment, artefacts and tips on optimizing imagequality. A section of problem-solving exercises completes thebook.
Now in full color throughout with over 200 illustrations thisbook will continue to appeal to radiographers new to MRI andregular users who are looking for information on alternativetechniques and suggestions on protocol modifications.
