| Abstract
|
:
|
The contributions in this book provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the art of tissue characterization with MRI. Various approaches to this problem, several of which are currently being used in a clinical setting, are presented. The main topics are parameter measurement, contrast agents, quality control, feature extraction, signal mechanisms, and signal influences.
