Overview
What you will learn
After successful completion of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging Sequences course offered by KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the students should be able to:
- describe the theory behind the most used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pulse sequences used in clinics and research and their applications.
- describe the most common image artifacts associated with MRI and how they can be reduced/avoided during imaging.
In order to:
- understand the scope of use and limitations of different MRI pulse sequences.
- select the most appropriate MRI pulse sequences for specific applications.
- have a broad knowledge base that can ease understanding literature in the field.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on two modules:
- Basic MRI sequences: gradient echo, spin echo, inversion recovery, acceleration techniques.
- Advanced MRI sequences: BOLD, diffusion, phase contrast, elastography, spectroscopy, Dixon, perfusion, thermometry, magnetization transfer, susceptibility imaging.
