Description
Book SynopsisHelps you plan and acquire MRI images. This handbook includes the step-by-step scanning protocols you need to produce optimal images. It demonstrates appropriate slice placements, typical midline images of planes, and line drawings of the pertinent anatomy corresponding to the midline images.
Trade Review"This book provides technologists and students with not only a baseline for MR image acquisition, but also a standard of quality that should be consistently duplicated to provide the healthcare team with quality diagnostic images. This is a must read for any student or beginning technologist. It does a great job of providing a practical, realistic approach to MRI that avoids confusing physics and equations. I have never seen another book that packed as much useful and simplistic information into such a small package." - Karl Freund, RT(R) MR, Froedtert Hospital (4 Star Doody Rating)
