The progress of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a clinical tool has been extraordinary, out-stripping the rate of development of any other imaging technique. There has been a huge increase in the practical applications of MRI techniques, and its uses look likely to extend even further with the development of high speed gradients and pulse sequences. The Handbook of MRI Technique hasproved highly successful in guiding the uninitiated through scanning techniques and helping more experienced technologists to improve image quality.
