Course Description
|
The GE Healthcare MR Basic Physics & Image Quality training program is a theoretical course designed to provide the attendee with a working knowledge of MR Basic Physics & Image Quality. This is an introductory to intermediate program that focuses on the basic principles of MR image production. Instruction takes place in a classroom and participants will have an opportunity to discuss the MR theory that supports the decisions that they make at the scan console. (This course does not provide “hands-on” scanning experience). Participant who meet attendance requirements are eligible for ASRT continuing education credits. This course is a purchase option and is not system specific, but does use GE terminology. Customers who are new to Magnetic Resonance Imaging or have recently purchased MR Twin, EXCITE, or HD/HDx platforms should consider attending this course in addition to the “Introduction to SignaHD” course. Instruction will take place in a classroom environment. Course lectures have been designed to ensure a common knowledge base and to provide an overview of MR Basic Physics & Image Quality, nuclear alignment, precession, signal generation, spatial encoding, contrast weighting, spatial resolution, signal-to-noise ratio and scan time factors. In addition, participants will discuss the impact of pulse sequences and imaging options on image characteristics. Students will receive the following: a MR Basic Physics & Image Quality course workbook outlining the material covered during this course and note taking supplies. Full Service - $ 3,800 |
Target AudienceThis program is designed for technologists who have limited (approximately 4 to 6 months) MR scanning experience or MR Technologists who have never received formal instruction in the theory of MR. |
