5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book for technician, February 22, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Mri Optimization: A Hands-On Approach (Paperback)

There are too many books that talk about MRI Physics. The physics is important but isn't helpful for the daily work being an MRI technician. The technique to acqire good images, simple anatomy of the body section, a small part of pathology and how it shows on an image, they are all in this book, and demonstration for the pulse sequences and how to deal with you patients.....
I always think that a technician should has his or her specialty, not being a robot , just does what the doctors want him (or her) to do. There is no such book in my cuontry, don't even mention the translation. Reading the originals is hard, but worthy. It makes me feel more confident and have the ability to help people.
