Best review book available

This is a great text to study for the registry. I passed my first time studying only this text. It's very well written and easy (relative term in MRI) to understand. Also, get Meacham's Question/Answer book to accompany this book and you'll be set.

Best book on MRI physics that I have read

I purchased a couple of MRI books and none made much sense to me until I read this book. The concepts of MRI physics is complex and hard to understand no matter what book you buy, but this book made it much easier to understand. It is clearly written in a logical format. I recommend the book highly.

Really is MRI in Practice verses Theory

I have been a MRI tech. for the past 12 years and have seen a lot of changes. This book is excellent for the "advanced" MRI tech and for the new MRI technologist looking for easy-to-understand explainations on how/why things work the way they do in the MRI field. I highly recommend this book to techs and referring physicians alike- a definite must-have for any technologist that wants to understand MRI, instead of just being a button-pusher.

Very easy to understand. Book geared for techs. If you want topass the MR registry this book is a must have. GREAT BOOK !!!!!

Great Book!

This is a great book for people who do not have a physics background. It's very useful in describing the basics of MRI as well as applications. It's one of my favorites. Everybody in grad school kept borrowing it from me!!
