Magnetic Resonance Imaging (eBook, ePUB)

The Basics

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Based on courses taught at The Johns Hopkins University, this text provides a solid introduction to MRI technology. After an overview of magnetic resonance and Fourier transformations, it examines the principles of physics for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal formation and image construction. It explains the mathematical formulation of MRI and discusses image quantitative indices. Additional topics include hardware and electronics of an MRI scanner, magnetic fields, and NMR spectroscopy and spectral acquisition and imaging techniques. The final section explores advanced imaging techniques. The book is enriched by numerous worked examples and problem sets with selected solutions.

Autorenporträt

Christakis Constantinides, PhD joined the faculty of the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of Cyprus in September 2005. He has also acted as a consultant to his start-up firm, Chi-Biomedical Ltd. ever since. His specific research interest focuses on the study of cardiac mechanical function, computational and tissue structure modeling and characterization, hardware design, and functional and cellular tracking methods using MRI. The goal of his research efforts is the complete characterization of the electromechanical function of the heart in small animals and humans, aiming to promote the understanding of mechanisms of human disease that is predominantly underlined by genetic causes.
