MRI Fundamentals
Welcome! In this course learners will develop expertise in basic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) physics and principles and gain knowledge of many different data acquisition strategies in MRI. In particular, learners will get to know what is magnetic resonance phenomenon, how magnetic resonance signals are generated, how an image can be formulated using MRI, how soft tissue contrast can change with imaging parameters. Also introduced will be MR imaging sequences of spin echo, gradient echo, fast spin echo, echo planar imaging, inversion recovery, etc.

Reviews
Excellent course. I used to work in MRI in late 80s so I wanted to review the material and update my knowledge. The course served my purpose.
Thank you Prof. Sung-Hong Park!
Very in depth course. It's easier to read the course than try to understand the video/audio. At least it was for me.
Excellent course, clear explanation and in details on MRI Fundamentals.
It is an excellent course for those who are from basic and those who are working on it. The contents and teaching methods are also very good.
