Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is the fastest growing modality in diagnostic imaging. There are now thousands of MRI facilities across the United States and around the world, employing huge numbers of technologists. The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists has, with the help of experts in the MRI and educational fields, devised a multiple choice examination that is intended to ensure that all technologists have the required level of knowledge to practice MRI safely and competently. Carolyn Kaut and William Faulkener, experts in the field of MRI education, have compiled this book to help students prepare for the registry examination. The questions follow the structure of the syllabus and are intended to help readers test their understanding of the subject and identify any gaps in their knowledge. The book is extremely comprehensive, covering all the aspects of the examination, including patient care and safety, imaging procedures, pulse sequences and data acquisition, and imaging artifacts and options.

a felow technologist recommended this as a study aid for the registry exam last fall. it was a definite life-saver. easy to understand; and practical questions. i don't think i could have passed the registry without this book. very highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars
If your taking the Registry....Its not really worth it,
By KEN (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Review Questions for MRI (Paperback)
The sections on MRI Patient Care, Safety, Equipment, and Some of the general concepts on Pulse Sequences were good -- and similar to the Registry. But....the Anatomy and Physics questions were way too easy
and much simpler than the Registry. Not Recommended. This is a general and basic review but nothing more. Explanations are lacking and the book needs updating.
