What is Magnetic Resonance Imaging : The Basics about?

"Preface Book Synopsis Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a rapidly developing field in basic, applied science and clinical practice. Research efforts in this field have already been recognized with five Nobel prizes, awarded to seven Nobel laureates during the last 69 years. The book begins with a general description of the phenomenon of magnetic resonance and a brief summary of Fourier transformations in two dimensions. It proceeds to examine the fundamental principles of physics for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal formation and image construction. To this extent, there is a detailed reference to the mathematical formulation of MRI using the imaging equation, description of the relaxation parameters T1 and T2, and reference to specific pulse sequences and data acquisition schemes. Additionally, numerous image quantitative indices are presented, including signal, noise, signal-to-noise, contrast, and resolution. The second part of the book discusses the hardware and electronics of an MRI scanner, the typical measurements and simulations of magnetic fields based on the law of Biot-Savart, followed by an introduction to NMR spectroscopy, and to dedicated spectral technique
