Detailing cost-effective procedures for improved image and spectrum quality, "Signal Processing for Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy" discusses the evaluation of specific shapes and geometric features in MR images; modern strategies for MR data processing; the characterization and analysis of cerebral, muscular, and cardiac tissues; wavelet transform and projection on convex sets (POCS), methods for image reconstruction, restoration, and enhancement; and effective methods for the reduction of ghost artifacts UR - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0824706536/chopaconline-20 ER -
