Items related to MRI Parameters and Positioning
Synopsis
Magnetic resonance imaging is a modality that is carried out under highly standardized conditions. Without knowledge of proper patient positioning and setting of parameters on the MR scanner, the quality of resultant images cannot be optimized. This book provides in easy-to-use form the general principles of patient positioning in MR imaging, and the appropriate scanning parameters, as used most commonly in hospital departments and practice. The text is organized in a manner that follows the chronological order of examination steps: preparation for the examination and materials needed; specifics as to patient positioning and choice of coils; protocols for carrying out the examination; and examples of recommended MR imaging sequence parameters. Besides the classic indications arising from neurological and orthopedic isorders, this book includes positioning information for the entire body and adjunct examinations, including MR angiography and MR cholangiography.

"What a clever and practical book is MRI Parameters and Positioning. This is the ideal book for the beginning magnetic resonance (MR) imaging technologist...a great textbook...helpful...makes it easy to access information on any area of the body quickly and efficiently...important but simple directives for positioning...Great stuff!...The appendix alone is truly a treasure...an artfully and thoughtfully presentedd chart of MR acronyms for the major manufacturers...strongly recommend[ed]."--Radiologic Technology
"Encompasses all aspects of obtaining various MRI sequences...extremely well done and user friendly...written in easy to understand concepts...useful...The anatomcial drawings were very helpful with illustrating the area that needed to be covered, as well as, positioning for various planes...shared tips and tricks...this book did an exceptional job at conveying to the reader what was pertinent about each protocol...flowed very easily..

From the Back Cover
Packed with information on the practical aspects of MRI, this user-friendly text covers everything from advice on optimal positioning of patients to recommendations for setting the appropriate scanning parameters.
Each consistently organized chapter follows the chronology of a standard procedure - the authors present essential information on preparation and necessary materials first. Then they skilfully guide the readers through special considerations in positioning and coil selection, protocols for conducting the exam, examples of various sequences, and possible modifications. Numerous tips, tricks, and pointers explain how to avoid potential complications.
Highlights of the second edition: 340 high-quality MRI scans and anatomical drawings New and expanded sections on MR angiography of pulmonary arteries and pelvic and leg vessels; the CARE Bolus Technique; whole-body MRI; and more Information on the latest protocols for MR urography, cholangiography, and colonography Consistent chapter structure for maximum accessibility on the job and at the MRI workstation Each section contains plenty of space on each page for personal notes
A guide to the most important MRI studies, the second edition of "MRI Parameters and Positioning" is an indispensable companion for all radiologists, radiology residents, and radiologic technologists.
