This second edition builds on that foundation with updated content and expanded coverage of recent advances in MRI hardware, pulse-sequence design, and clinical and research applications. New chapters introduce cutting-edge developments in hyperpolarisation, advanced functional imaging, cardiac MRI, deep-learning-based reconstruction methods, and contemporary safety considerations—all while preserving the accessible, equation-driven exposition that defined the original text. A new section explains the mathematics of AI and its application can enhance multiple aspects of MRI. Whether you are an undergraduate or graduate student, a researcher, or a clinical physicist seeking deeper understanding, this revised edition offers a comprehensive, mathematically grounded exploration of how MRI works—from the behaviour of nuclear spins to the formation of high-quality clinical images. Open the book and discover the rich scientific complexity behind every scan.
Key Features:
· Presents a complete account of physical and mathematical principles used in MRI, including rigorous derivations of the key steps in signal generation and image formation.
· Provides expanded and up-to-date coverage of modern MRI technologies, including advanced pulse-sequence design, hyperpolarisation, functional and cardiac MRI, deep-learning-based reconstruction, and contemporary safety considerations.
· Bridges theory, technology, and clinical practice, making the book suitable as a core graduate-level text and as a reference for researchers and practicing clinical MRI physicists.
Richard Ansorge is a retired senior lecturer at the Cavendish Laboratory Cambridge and a former fellow and tutor of Fitzwilliam College Cambridge. He has extensive experience of experimental high energy physics, including significant contributions to the CERN UA5 experiment on the proton-antiproton collider in the 1980s. More recently he has collaborated with research groups on the Cambridge Biomedical campus in several areas including improving 3D medical imaging methods, including MRI and PET. He is author of more than 150 scientific publications in these fields and of the book Programming in Parallel with CUDA (Cambridge University Press 2022). Martin J. Graves is Professor of Magnetic Resonance Physics at the University of Cambridge and Honorary Consultant Clinical Scientist at Cambridge University Hospitals. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM), a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, a Senior Fellow of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM), an Honorary Member of the Royal College of Radiologists, a Fellow of the British Institute of Radiology, and a member of the International Society for Strategic Studies in Radiology (IS3R). He has served on national and international committees for the BIR, ISMRM and ESMRMB. With more than 40 years’ experience in both clinical and research MRI, he has published over 200 articles on a range of MRI topics.
