Since its inception in 1971. MRI has developed into a premier tool for anatomical and runaional imaging. Prin??ples ofMagne??c Resonance Imaging provides a clear and comprehensive treatment of MR image formation principles from a signal processing perspective. You will find discussion of these essential topics:

Mathematical fundamentalsSignal generation and detection principlesSignal characteristicsSignal localization principlesImage reconstruction techniquesImage contrast mechanismsImage resolution. noise, and artifactsFast-scan imagingConstrained reconstructionSpatial information encoding Principles of Magnetic Resonance Imaging contains a omprehensive set or examples and homework problems. This textbook will provide students of biomedical engineering. biophysics. chetnistry. electrical engineering. and radiology with a systematic. in-depth understanding of MRI principles.
