With over 400 clinical images, this reference and pocket guide overviews the basic principles and clinical applications for 3 tesla (3T) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging by addressing anatomical locations individually with case studies including sample images. In each case readers can see a description of the image, and when needed they can also learn when the situation dictates using 3T over 1.5T. The 104 entries include basic principles, equipment descriptions, imaging and field strength, basic operations and parameters, and information specific to the brain, spine, knee, shoulder, wrist, heart, breast, liver, kidney, pelvis, prostate, carotid and abdominal aortic. The index is very helpful in finding particular conditions and types of images. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
