Riassunto

Magnetic Resonance Imaging presents the fundamentals and principles of MRI, its capabilities and various applications. MRI can be a difficult subject because the physical principles underlying MRI are different from those of x-ray imaging. This text provides a clear and comprehensive explanation of the basic principles of conventional MRI and of the fast imaging techniques currently available.
