Principles of Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2016-2017.

After a brief overview of all major medical modalities: x-ray, CT, MRI, SPECT/PET, and US, this course will focus on the formulations of spatial encoding and image contrasts as exemplified in MRI. The inverse problem between detected signal and image source will be discussed for biomedical applications. The concepts of image resolution, image contrast, SNR, and scan time will be illustrated quantitatively from an engineering point of view.

When Offered Fall.

Permission Note Enrollment limited to: graduate D.V.M.s or equivalent in residency or graduate training programs.
