Rezensionen

"This is a very well written book and benefits from colour figures embedded throughout the text. ... the growth of thoracic applications of MRI and the exciting opportunities both in research and clinical practice make this a perfect starting point for anyone planning a lung MRI based project (it would be invaluable as a starting point for a thesis introduction) or considering setting up a clinical lung MRI service." (Thomas Semple, RAD Magazine, December, 2019)
