内容説明

This text, intended to be of use to researcher and clinicians alike, provides current information on the principles and applications of molecular diffusion and perfusion nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. This technology is important clinically for the emergency management of stroke patients and monitoring of laser surgery. The text features: basic principles of diffusion measurements with MRI and various principles which have been proposed to produce images of diffusion; technical considerations; overview of the current and potential clinical application; difficulties encountered when implementing diffusion imaging and the significance of diffusion measurements in biological tissues; physical principles and fields of applications such as tracer and blood pool agent based approaches; and methods specific to MRI where flowing blood is magnetically labelled.

目次

  • Part 1 Diffusion imaging: principles of diffusion MR imaging and spectroscopy - molecular diffusion and nuclear magnetic resonance, diffusion imaging, diffusion spectroscopy
