Editorial Review:
The progress of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a tool in diagnostic radiology has been extraordinary--outstripping the rate of development of any other imaging technique. Its inherent safety combined with multi-planar capabilities and image-contrast manipulation have ensured its importance in the diagnosis of disease.
Handbook of MRI Technique has proved hugely successful in guiding the uninitiated through scanning techniques and helping more experienced technologists to improve image quality. This new edition continues to build on the strengths of the first edition and considers new technologies and developments essential to good practice. Despite their different systems and environments, technologists and radiographers from the US and Australia have contributed large sections to the book to ensure that information on techniques and image optimization is comprehensive.
The book is split into two parts. Part I considers the main aspects of theory that relate to scanning and also includes practical tips on gating, equipment use, patient care and safety, and information on contrast media. Part II provides step-by-step instruction for examining each anatomical area, beginning with a basic anatomy section, followed by sections on indications, patient positioning, equipment, artefacts and tips on optimizing image quality. A section of problem-solving exercises completes the book.
Now in a larger format with over 200 images, this book will continue to appeal to radiographers new to MRI and regular users who are looking for information on alternative techniques and suggestions on protocol modifications.

Rating: - Good Solution
Building protocols for the MRI is not an easy job.This book represents the first step in order for the radiologist to understand the principles that he needs to take into consideration in order to perform examinations that reveal the pathology of the patients.
Rating: - Helpful for MRI professionals
I just would like to mention about the possibility in prepare a new edition. This one was published in 1999. The technology is fast and growing every day with new procedures and new tools. I think will be helpful if a new edition could be edited, including the newest studies with a 3 Tesla machine.
This book is great and I do recommend for everyone who works in the MRI field.
Rating: - MRI book
Hi,
I have read different books written by Catherine,this one is very good.It is good simply because was written by the Technologist.
I had a chance to buy it at the MR seminar last weekend.I recommend it to every MR Technologist who wants to become better in the MR art.
Rating: - Brand new book for nice price
I got a nice price for this brand new book after comparing with difference store. I like to purchase book in Amazon Marketplace.
It can save money.
Rating: - Handbook of MRI Techniques 2nd edition
This book is excellent for review and for technologists in the field. The guidlines for protocols are extremely helpful especially for new technologists.
