MRI PHYSICS COURSE

1. Introduction to MRI Physics


- What is MRI? How is it different from other modalities? - Where does the MRI signal come from? - What are the basic elements (hardware and software) of the MR system? - What are the basic (standard) types of MR image contrasts (proton density, T1, T2) and what types of things (biology, experimental parameters) influence this? - What types of information can we get from standard MR sequences?

2. MRI Contrast Agents


- What are MR contrast agents? How do they work? - What are the different classes of MR contrast agents? - Contrast agent pharmacokinetics & perfusion imaging (DCE-MRI) - Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)-MR imaging of blood flow and blood volume

3. Diffusion and Perfusion MRI


- What are diffusion and perfusion MRI? What are the physics behind diffusion/perfusion imaging? - What is diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)? What additional information does this provide? - Diffusion MRI applications (cancer imaging, stroke, trauma) - Arterial spin labeling (ASL) physics and applications - Phase contrast imaging (PC-MRI) physics and applications

4. Advanced applications & other topics (audience)
