Magnetic Resonance Imaging - Physical Principles and Sequence Design (John Wiley & Sons Inc)

Already considered the preeminent text in MR physics, this second edition of Magnetic Resonance Imaging provides the most comprehensive yet approachable introduction to the physics and applications of the subject. This classic text for advanced undergraduates, graduates, instructors, physicists, and engineers includes expanded coverage of trace analysis, spatial limitations of diffusion processes, diffusion tensor imaging, contrast mechanisms, and image distortion correction, and a new chapter on parallel imaging, as well as sections on relaxation processes, radiofrequency (rf) penetration and high field issues in physiological MRI.
