After a review of the essential concepts of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), The Challenges of MRI presents the recent techniques and methods of MRI and resulting medical applications. These techniques provide access to information that goes well beyond anatomy, with functional, hemodynamic, structural, biomechanical and biochemical information. MRI allows us to probe living organisms in a multitude of ways, guaranteeing the potential for continuous development involving several disciplines: physics, electronics, life sciences, signal processing and medicine.
This collective work is made up of chapters written and designed by experts from the French community. They have endeavored to describe the techniques by recalling the underlying physics and detailing the modeling, methods and strategies for acquiring or extracting information.
This book is aimed at master’s students and PhD students, as well as lecturers and researchers in medical imaging and radiology.
Hélène Ratiney is a research fellow at the CNRS and currently head of the NMR and Optics team at the CREATIS laboratory, France. She has developed recognized expertise in the quantification of in vivo spectroscopy signals and also works on pulse design and quantitative MRI.
Olivier Beuf is a senior researcher at the CNRS and currently heads the CREATIS laboratory, France. He has extensive experience of MRI applications and a thorough understanding of the associated instrumental and methodological aspects. His recent work focuses on quantitative MRI for tumor characterization and radiation therapy planning.
