Course description
This advanced MRI course builds on the course Advanced MR Physics 1. It focusses on MR imaging methods and applications. The mathematical and physical framework laid down in AMRP 1 is used to focus on MR imaging methods and applications: fast spin- and gradient-echo imaging, spectroscopy, MR angiography, perfusion, diffusion and susceptibility weighted imaging and quantification, scan acceleration techniques.
For the lectures (morning sessions) attendance is highly recommended; the tutorial sessions in the afternoon are mandatory.
