Von der hinteren Coverseite

Magnetic Resonance Image Reconstruction: Theory, Methods and Applications presents the fundamental concepts of MR image reconstruction, including its formulation as an inverse problem, as well as the most common models and optimization methods for reconstructing MR images. It discusses approaches for specific applications such as non-Cartesian imaging, under sampled reconstruction, motion correction, dynamic imaging and quantitative MRI.

The reader will be able to:

• Describe magnetic resonance image reconstruction as an inverse problem
• Recognize advantages and disadvantages of several objective functions, practical algorithms and system models used for magnetic resonance image reconstruction
• Implement basic techniques for magnetic resonance image reconstruction
• Identify reconstruction methods for specific applications of magnetic resonance imaging

Magnetic Resonance Image Reconstruction: Theory, Methods and Applications is a unique resource suitable for physicists, engineers, technologists and clinicians with an interest in medical image reconstruction and MRI
