Practical Mri: A Teaching File

Brown, Jeffrey J.

Wippold, Franz J.

Medical Books

Raven Pr

Written by two eminent practitioners and teachers of body MRI, this thoroughly illustrated volume is a practical, problem-oriented "how-to" guide to performing and interpreting abdominal and pelvic MRI studies. The book provides the necessary know-how for optimizing image quality and protocols and describes specific techniques, including MR angiography, MR cholangiopancreatography, MR urography, MRI of the gastrointestinal tract, and obstetrical MRI. A section on interpretation describes MRI appearances of 101 abdominal and pelvic abnormalities, presents differential diagnoses, and offers guidance on interpreting preoperative MRI studies. Additional chapters show normal MRI anatomy, answer frequently asked questions, and demystify MRI acronyms and terminology.

Practical Guide to Abdominal and Pelvic Mri

Leyendecker, John R., M.D.

Medicine

Lippincott, Williams, & Wilkins

Incorporating the latest advances in MR technology and cardiac imaging, this pocket atlas is a rapid guide to interpretation of cardiac MR images. This edition features over 120 sharp new images of normal anatomy and abnormalities and includes new sections on coronary arteries, thoracic MR angiography, three-dimensional surface anatomy, surgical repairs, and imaging protocols. Each page presents a high-resolution image, with anatomic landmarks clearly labeled. Above the image is a key to the labels and a thumbnail illustration that orients readers to the plane of view (sagittal, axial, or coronal). This format enables readers to identify features quickly and accurately.

Pocket Atlas of Cardiac MRI (Radiology Pocket Atlas Series)

Higgins, Charles B.

Woodard MD, Pamela K.

Allied Health Professions

Incorporating recent advances in MR technology, this handy pocket atlas is a rapid guide to the use of magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of cardiac and thoracic disease. Included are more than 60 high quality images of normal anatomy and pathologic conditions taken at a variety of different magnetic field strengths to obtain the most clinically useful scans. In addition to the standard orthogonal views (i.e., transaxial, coronal, and sagittal planes), the anatomy is displayed in long and short axis views of the heart. This global depiction of anatomy in different planes facilitates the interpretation of MR images and provides a practical and manageable guide to the anatomy of this region. The atlas also contains an important section of high-resolution MR images depicting a variety of cardiac and thoracic abnormalities, and illustrates the capability of MR imaging to clearly delineate pathologic conditions in the thorax.
