Designed to help you plan and acquire MRI images, Handbook of MRI Scanning, by Geraldine Burghart and Carol Ann Finn, includes the step-by-step scanning protocols you need to produce optimal images. Coverage of all body regions prepares you to perform virtually any scan. Going beyond the referencing and recognition of three-plane, cross-sectional anatomy, each chapter demonstrates appropriate slice placements, typical midline images of each plane, and detailed line drawings of the pertinent anatomy correspo; Includes bibliographical references and index; Front Cover; Handbook of Scanning; Copyright; Dedication; Foreword; Reviewers; Acknowledgments; Contents; Preface; Organization and Content; Ancillaries; Patient Preparation; Safety Guidelines; Zoning of the Mr Suite; Mr Personnel; Guidelines for Screening Patients and Non-Mr Personnel; Pediatric Concerns; Pregnancy and MR; Device Screening; MR Scanning Safety; References; Chapter 1: MRI of the Head and Neck; Important Considerations for Scan Acquisition; Routine Brain Scan; Brain For Pituitary; Brain for Internal Auditory Canals (IACs); Brain for Orbits-Optic Nerves; Brain for Multiple SclerosisBrain for Epilepsy-Temporal Lobe; Brain for Temporomandibular Joints; MRA-Circle of willis; MRV-superior Sagittal Sinus; Brain for Cerebrospinal Fluid; Brain For Stroke; fMRI-Functional MRI; Soft Tissue Neck; Magnetic Resonance Angiography of Carotid Arteries And Carotid Bifurcation; Chapter 2: MRI of the Spine and Bony Pelvis; MRI of the Spine And Bony Pelvis-Considerations; Routine Cervical Spine; Cervical Spine For Multiple Sclerosis; Routine Thoracic Spine; Lumbar Spine; Sacroiliac Joints-Sacrum And Coccyx; MRI of the Bony Pelvis; Chapter 3: MRI of the Upper ExtremitiesMRI of the Upper Extremities-considerations; MRI of the Shoulder; MRI of the Humerus; MRI of the Elbow; MRI of the Forearm; MRI of the Wrist; MRI of the Hand And Digits; Chapter 4: MRI of the Lower Extremities; Mri of the Lower Extremities-Considerations; MRI of the Hips; MRI of the Femur; MRI of the Knee; MRI of the Lower Leg; MRI of the Ankle; MRI of the Foot And Digits; Chapter 5: MRI of the Thorax; MRI of the Breast; Cardiac MRI; MRI oF the Brachial Plexus; Chapter 6: MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis; MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis-considerations; MRI of the Abdomen-KidneysMRI Of The Abdomen-Portal Vein; Magnetic Resonance Cholangiographic Pancreatography; MRI Of The Adrenal Glands; MRI of the Female Pelvis-Uterus; MRI of the Male Pelvis-Prostate; MRA of The Renal Arteries; MRA RUNOFF-Abdomen, pelvis, and lower Extremities; AppendixA: Gadolinium-Based Contrast Agents (GBCAs); Adverse Events; Pregnancy; Breast Feeding Mothers; Pediatric Patients; Contrast Written Orders and Administration:; Contrast and NSF/NSD:; Legal Ramifications of Contrast; Bibliography; AppendixB: Vendor Mri Acronyms; Glossary of MRI Terms; Index ER -
