Infos

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can be a difficult subject because the physical principles underlying MRI are different from those of x-ray imaging. This text presents the fundamentals and principles of MRI, its capabilities and applications. It provides an explanation of the basic principles of conventional MRI and of the imaging techniques.
