MRI from Picture to Proton presents the basics of MR practice and theory as the practitioner first meets them. The subject is approached intuitively, starting from the images, equipment and scanning protocols, rather than pages of dry physics theory. The reader is brought face-to-face with issues pertinent to practice immediately, filling in the theoretical background as their experience of scanning grows. Key ideas are introduced in an accessible manner which is faithful to the underlying physics but avoids the need for difficult or distracting mathematics. Additional explanations for the more technically inquisitive are given in optional secondary text boxes. Informal in style, informed in content, written by experienced teachers, MRI from Picture to Proton is an essential text for the student of MR whatever their background: medical, technical or scientific.
