Beschreibung
The second edition of Rad Tech's Guide to MRI provides practicing and training technologists with a succinct overview of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Designed for quick reference and examination preparation, this pocket-size guide covers the fundamental principles of electromagnetism, MRI equipment, data acquisition and processing, image quality and artifacts, MR Angiography, Diffusion/Perfusion, and more.

Written by an expert practitioner and educator, this handy reference guide:
* Provides essential MRI knowledge in a single portable, easy-to-read guide
* Covers instrumentation and MRI hardware components, including gradient and radio-frequency subsystems
* Provides techniques to handle flow imaging issues and improve the quality of MRIs
* Explains the essential physics underpinning MRI technology

Rad Tech's Guide to MRI is a must-have resource for student radiographers, especially those preparing for the American Registry of Radiation Technologist (ARRT) exams, as well as practicing radiology technologists looking for a quick reference guide.
