I am a new MRI tech, learning from scratch and I have spent most of my practical hours without a senior tech to train me. I have found better MRI books to learn from than this one. The layout is all over the place and there are a lot of spelling and I believe translation errors/quirks to this book. Given the price i guess I got what I paid for.

Not the greatest for the beginning MRI tech

I have just graduated x-ray tech school and am employed as an MRI tech (on the job training) at a hospital. This book gave me very little help in the physics of MRI. By now, I know *how to do* MRI, but I am still strugling with *why I am doing* what I am doing. This book did not help at all in that respect. I am sure it has its place, but generally not the easiest to understand book in the world.

Interesting

I purchased this book judging from the reviews i read about it.It is a very interesting book and really helpful.It makes you understand in a simple way the basic procedure in order to build a protocol.

MRI Guide For Technologists:A Step By Step Approach

I think this is the perfect reference for the technolgist learning MRI. I have taken Mootoo's class, which was excellent. Along with what I learned in class, I make sure I have his book with me during my clinical experience. He has all the positioning, the various coils, and pulse sequences needed for all the different MRI exams....His book is a must for the new MRI technologist.

Excellent book for beginning MRI technologists.

A very basic, beginner approach to MRI scanning. This is the most practical book I have seen. The illustrations are clear and very helpful when learning how to set up scan sequences.
This is the book to have at the console when you begin scanning alone.
