Great update to the previous edition.

Best book for registry review.

I chose this book to teach my MRI physics class.

The organization is a lot better but not perfect in my opinion. Chapter 3, for example, is SE pulse sequences. When it introduces fast spin echo, it tells the reader to skip to chapter 5 and 6 then come back. I understand the need for that, but it should be organized so the reader doesn't have to skip forward and come back.

Helped me pass my boards!

Overall, a useable textbook, but the organization is a little odd. The intro Chapter discusses the theoretical basics, which could be expanded, but the hardware basics aren't discussed until much later in the book. The central part of the book focuses on different pulse sequences, and althought it's boring, there's no exciting way to learn the dozens of different basic pulse sequences.

This is my latest read. Fascinating!! I really don't recommend it unless you plan on spending hours of your life doing MRI's. This book is the reason why I haven't read any good books in so long. I can't wait till I take my boards (TUESDAY!!) and get on with my life!

A very good book for mri basics. I would keep such a book as a reference if I am specialized in MRI technology.
I read a lot from it but not everything.
