This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. LECTURES - MRI section of the BME graduate course """"""""Radiology in Practice."""""""" For BME and Medical Physics graduate students - specifically intended to provide hands-on experience with all primary imaging modalities. For the MRI section, provided 1 week of intensive classroom lectures covering basics of magnetic resonance signal generation to k-space. This was followed by multiple hands-on sessions with a clinical MR scanner. Students conducted hands-on studies involving spectroscopy, gradient echo imaging, spin echo imaging, and exploring T1 and T2 contrast. The culmination of the work was that students had a chance to reconstruct MR images from raw data files and compare their results to those achieved by the scanner reconstruction algorithm. 12 graduate students participated.
