Sinopsis
This new, second edition entitled MRI Physics for Radiologists has been re-structured and expanded to take into account many magnetic resonance techniques that are routinely used yet little understood. It approaches the subject the same way that a practicing radiologist does: from the visual image. The text explains, with a minimal amount of mathematics, what is seen in the image. How do fast scan images differ from spin-echo images? What devices can be used to control motion artifacts? What is a "wrap-around" artifact? How do water and fat affect the MR image? These questions are each dealt with in separate chapters in the new, third section of the book. Still in its handy pocketbook format, MRI Physics for Radiologists can be understood by anybody with a knowledge of basic algebra! From the reviews of the first edition: "The book certainly fulfils the aim of presenting the fundamental physics of MRI in a clear and concise form to those without a physics background and may well be of use to trainee radiologists, radiographers and any clinician interested in understanding the principles and terminology of magnetic resonance imaging without becoming entrenched in mathematics." #Clinical Physics and Physiological Measurement#1

Reseña del editor
When this book was initially published three years ago, it was my goal to delineate the principles of magnetic resonance imaging in a format that could be understood without a sophisticated physics or mathematics back ground. That is still my goal. However, in the interim, it has become clear to me that many magnetic resonance techniques that we now routinely use are inadequately understood by many of us. Therefore, I have re-structured and expanded the book in the following way. There are now three main sections: of the sections one and two deal with the contrast and spatial characteristics image, as they did in the original text; and an additional section deals with various peripheral but significant magnetic resonance topics. Sections one and two still provide the "meat" of the material through the guise of the spin-echo pulse sequence; but section three goes beyond by explaining other pulse cycles and devices that are commonly used in today's imaging centers. To begin with, since fast scanning has now become a widely used tech nique, that chapter has been significantly expanded, and now includes a complete but non-mathematical explanation of what a gradient echo is and how fast scan images differ in principle from spin-echo images. Also, the applications of 3DFT and "half-Fourier" imaging are graphically covered without mathematical intervention.
