The course introduces the students to basic priciples of NMR imaging (MRI) and diffusion such as use of gradients, k-space, slice selection, and projection reconstruction ant to particular imaging and diffusion sequences and contrast-determining factors. Applications will be discussed and demonstrated.
Literature and preparations
Specific prerequisites
The course requires a background equivalent to or better than a course covering the classical description (incl rotating frame, the effect of radiofrequency pulses, time- and frequency-domain signal, relaxation times, simple pulse sequences) of NMR.
Recommended prerequisites
