Description
The present Syllabus provides an integrated view of the set-up, processing and interpretation of magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy experiments. There are specialized sections on spectroscopy, methodology and clinical MRI. Several chapters in each section provide authoritative descriptions, ranging from the physical basis to the most recent developments. The volume offers both a useful introduction to MR methods for the non-experienced reader and can be an advanced reference book for physicists, biologists and physicians actively working in MR.
