    About this ebook

    Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is among the most important medical imaging techniques available today. There is an installed base of approximately 15,000 MRI scanners worldwide. Each of these scanners is capable of running many different "pulse sequences", which are governed by physics and engineering principles, and implemented by software programs that control the MRI hardware. To utilize an MRI scanner to the fullest extent, a conceptual understanding of its pulse sequences is crucial. Handbook of MRI Pulse Sequences offers a complete guide that can help the scientists, engineers, clinicians, and technologists in the field of MRI understand and better employ their scanner.
    • Explains pulse sequences, their components, and the associated image reconstruction methods commonly used in MRI
    • Provides self-contained sections for individual techniques
    • Can be used as a quick reference guide or as a resource for deeper study
    • Includes both non-mathematical and mathematical descriptions
    • Contains numerous figures, tables, references, and worked example problems

    Matt A. Bernstein

    Matt Bernstein received his Ph.D. in theoretical nuclear physics in 1985 from the University of Wisconsin. From 1987-1998, he served first as Senior Software Designer and then later as Senior Physicist at GE Medical Systems, developing novel techniques for MR. He has been awarded 36 US patents over his career. Currently he is a board-certified Medical Physicist and researcher at Mayo Clinic, where he is a Full Professor in the Department of Radiology, with a joint appointment in the Department of Physiology and Biomedical Engineering. Recently the research group he leads developed a novel Compact 3T scanner in collaboration with GE Global Research, and he is currently serving as PI of a 5-year, NIH U01 grant for this program. Dr Bernstein was Editor-in-Chief of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine from 2011-2019, and chaired the International Society for Magnetic Resonance (ISMRM) Engineering Study Group. He is a Fellow of the ISMRM and AIMBE, and is a Distinguished Investigator of the Academy for Radiology & Biomedical Imaging Research. He also served on the Board of Directors of the American Board of Medical Physics, the Board of Trustees of the ISMRM, as well as on several NIH Study Sections. Dr Bernstein has authored over 130 peer-reviewed papers, 250 conference abstracts, and co-authored the book Thinking about equations: A practical guide for developing mathematical intuition in the physical sciences and engineering. According to Google Scholar, his work has been cited approximately 15,000 times.
