MRIT 1471  MR Imaging Procedures  4 Credits   (3 Lec, 3 Lab)  

This course is a study of imaging techniques related to the central nervous system (CNS), neck, thorax, musculoskeletal system, and abdominopelvic regions. The content covers specific clinical application, available coils and their use, considerations in the scan sequences, specific choices in the protocols (e.g., slice thickness, phase direction, and flow compensation) and positioning criteria. Anatomical structures and the planes that best demonstrate anatomy are discussed, as well as signal characteristics of normal and abnormal structures.
Prerequisite(s): Admission to the MRI Program
