Foreword

Since the introduction of magnetic resonance imaging in the early 1980s, unprecedented

developments have taken place that have catapulted this imaging modality to the fore-

front of modern medical imaging. During this development, complex novel techniques

have been introduced, including diffusion imaging, perfusion imaging, functional MR

imaging, and basic innovations in pulse sequence design and system hardware. Despite

the myriad of publications and developments, it is frequently difficult for the practicing

radiologist to stay ahead of the game and translate advances into clinical protocols and

improvements.

The current book by Drs. Reimer, Parizel, and Stichnoth is an exercise in marrying

technological advances and clinical radiology. The book has 17 chapters: basic, contrast

agents, hemorrhage, head, ENT, spine, pelvis, abdomen, retroperitonium, vessels, joints,

soft tissue, chest breast, cardiac, pediatrics, and interventional imaging. All the chapters

have the same structure, including subchapters on coils, pulse sequences, imaging proto-

cols, anatomy, and clinically relevant pathology. Each chapter also contains a succinct ref-

erence list. Overall there are over 500 pages with illustrations to highlight key concepts.

The authors have done a fine job and the current work certainly enriches the arma-

mentarium for the clinical radiologist. The editors and contributors are to be commend-

ed for their efforts in achieving a clear synthesis of technological and clinical issues. This

volume clearly represents an important contribution to the field of medical imaging.
