MRI Made Easy

Product Information

The first edition of this introductory book was written when the author felt the need for a book on the complex subject of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), that will be in simple words and that will give knowledge and confidence for day-to-day working. Key points New edition introducing radiology trainees to principles, sequences and interpretation of MRI Authored by Canadian radiology specialist Features 250 images and illustrations Includes photo CD First edition published in 2007.

Section II is on higher applications of MRI and has many new chapters covering new and upcoming MRI techniques including quantitative techniques. Radiographic abnormalities noted included 3 patients with cup loosening and 2 patients with neck thinning. MRI has an advantage over CT in being able to detect flowing blood and cryptic vascular malformations. Country of Publication: India Publisher: New Delhi : Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd, 2013. Ectopic bone formation, however, did not seem to affect the functional result as judged by the Harris hip evaluation unless apparent bone ankylosis resulted.Also discussed in the section I are basic principles of MR interpretations with addition of a new chapter on normal signal intensity on MRI. Instruments capable of ultra-high field strengths, ≥7 Tesla, were recently engineered and have resulted in higher signal-to-noise and higher resolution images. I think the main problem is that they saw MRI as a process that is so complicated that there is no point in trying to 'dumb it down', forcing students to pore over their materials to try to piece together their own understanding of how it works.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of scan used to diagnose health conditions that affect organs, tissue and bone. Divided into two sections, this concise guide introduces radiology trainees to the principles, sequences and interpretation of MRI. This book rings true to its title by taking students through the process with an abundance of metaphors and cheerful illustrations to emphasise the logic behind MRI. Then, the processes of localization of different points in an image, resolution, and signal-to-noise ratio are highlighted.Advancement and higher MR technologies like 3-Tesla MRI which is superior in epilepsy, inner ear and functional imaging are also discussed briefly. Principles of MRI, sequences, interpretation principles and basic physics behind special applications of MRI such as diffusion, perfusion and spectroscopy are discussed in simple words. Magnetic Resonance Imaging or MRI is a modern diagnostic tool for acquiring information from the interior of a human body. GERMAN language edition~~VG 1990 1st ed Schering paperback, minor surface wear due to sticker removal to top rear of spine only, tight and unmarked.

Therefore, we will give an introduction to basic MRI principles necessary to understand the difficulties of cardiac MRI. Dust Jackets are not guaranteed and when still present, they will have various degrees of tear and damage.

Authored by Canadian radiologist Govind Chavhan, this second edition includes 250 images and illustrations, as well as a photo CD, to assist trainees with learning. The content of this App is developed for Health Care Professionals working in the field of radiology for the purpose of educational training. The acquired form of HO most frequently is seen with either musculoskeletal trauma, spinal cord injury, or central nervous system injury. Further, it also portrays finer details about the RF coils and transceiver and also various limitations of the RF coils and transceiver. A method to classify the degree of ectopic bone formation about the hip following total hip arthroplasty revealed that 21% of 100 consecutive patients treated by total hip arthroplasty had ectopic bone formation about the hip of various degrees when reviewed 6 mth following operation.

There has been growing concern regarding the systemic and local effects of metal ions released from metal-on-metal hip resurfacings and total hip replacements, including the development of aseptic lymphocyte dominated vasculitis associated lesions (ALVAL).
