Biomedical/Electrical Engineering Principles of Magnetic Resonance Imaging A Signal Processing Perspective A volume in the IEEE Press Series in Biomedical EngineeringMetin Akay. Series Editor Since its inception in 1971. MRI has developed into a premier tool for anatomical and functional imaging. Principles of Magnetic Resonance Imaging provides a clear and comprehensive treatment of MR image formation principles from a signal processing perspective. You will find discussion of these essential topics: Mathematical fundamentals Signal generation and detection principles Signal characteristics Signal localization principles Image reconstruction techniques Image contrast mechanisms Image resolution, noise, and artifacts Fast-scan imaging Constrained reconstruction Spatial information encoding Principles of Magnetic Resonance Imaging contains a comprehensive set or examples and homework problems. This textbook will provide students of biomedical engineering, biophysics, chemistry, electrical engineering, and radiology with a systematic, in-depth understanding of MRI principles.
