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? ...

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
