Planning and Positioning in MRI, 1ed

Positioning in MRI is a clinical manual about the creation of magnetic resonance images. This manual focuses upon patient positioning and image planning.

When commencing in magnetic resonance imaging, the range of pulse sequences, variable appearances of pathology and image orientation may overwhelm trainees. The approach taken in the writing of this text reflects the intended audience, namely radiographers actually performing the examination, operating the scanner. Most, if not all sites are under the direction of a radiologist who prescribes pulse sequences and ultimately reports on the outcomes, but it is the radiographer sitting at the operator console who must know the imaging planes and degree of coverage required, just as they would for an X-ray or CT examination. This text aims to address this issue, focusing upon patient positioning and image planning, with a limited description of what may be demonstrated in each scan plane.

The manual is organised by body region and provides valuable insight into –

• Patient pathology on MRI.
• Considerations when positioning both the patient and coil.
• Imaging planes.
• Anatomical image alignment.

This manual is a comprehensive highly visual reference to the planning and positioning of patients and coils in MR imaging. High quality imaging specific to patient pathology is encouraged through the focus on ‘considerations’ specific to coil and patient placement and imaging plane selection.

• Over 200 MR images
• Formulaic internal design assist use as clinical manual to MRI planning
• Evidence base provided where appropriate (cranial neurology)
• Image selection – assist learning principles that underpin good positioning and anatomical coverage
• Explores positioning of patient and coils specific to individual treatment requirements
• Evolve website – image collection (over 200 MR images) and additional case studies
