It is written as an intro- duction to the field, for nonexperts. We present here a simple exposition of certain aspects of MRI that are important to understand to use this valuable diagnostic tool intelligently in a clinical setting. The basic principles are presented nonmathematically, using no equations and a minimum of symbols and abbreviations. For those requiring a deeper understanding of MRI, this book will help facilitate the transition to standard texts. Chapters 1 through 4 provide a general introduction to the phenomenon of nuclear magnetic resonance and how it is used in imaging. Chapter 1 discus- ses magnetic resonance, using a compass needle as an example. In Chapter 2, the transition to the magnetic resonance of the atomic nucleus is made. Chapter 3 describes the principles of imaging. In Chapter 4, the terms T 1 and T 2 are described and their relationship to tissue characterization; the fun- damental role of thermal magnetic noise in T 1 and T 2 is discussed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Oldendorf,William Oldendorf Jr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 089838964X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780898389647\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.72h x 6.60w x 0.63d","brand":"William Oldendorf","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47579621818623,"sku":"9780898389647","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a1efe321-3649-4ed6-8a9c-88431f81e7fc.jpg?v=1763875473","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/basics-of-magnetic-resonance-imaging-william-oldendorf-9780898389647","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
