Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is one of the most widely used diagnostic tools in medicine, and there has never been a greater need for a conception-oriented book on the imaging and spectroscopic aspects of magnetic resonance (MR) as it is practised in clinical and research settings. This book explains the physical and conceptual basis governing present-day applications of MR. It also describes how imaging data is acquired, manipulated and reconstructed for visual examination. To reinforce the understanding of the main text, problem-solving and self-assessment questions have also been provided. With its brisk simple language tempering the inherent technicality of the subject, this book would be useful to radiology residents, biomedicine students, practising clinicians and MRI technicians.
