Features: This pocket atlas depicts human organ anatomy with high-quality magnetic resonance images. The book contains 96 MR images of the chest, abdomen, pelvis, thigh, knee, calf, foot and ankle, shoulder, upper arm, forearm, as well as hand and wrist. The images are displayed in axial, coronal, and sagittal planes, with labeled anatomical features and line drawings to illustrate the level of the scanning plane. Most images were acquired using spin-echo sequences, but other sequences were also used, and the imaging sequence used for each image is described. The thickness of the scanning plane varies depending on the anatomical region: thin slices are used for joint areas, while thick slices are used for the abdomen, chest, and other non-joint areas.
