Sammendrag
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging modalities provide non-invasive and non-harmful invivo imaging tools for clinical investigations. The standard clinical MR protocols used inbrain examinations comprise several anatomical imaging techniques. This work describesthe principal physics behind some common MR contrasts and their applications in clinicalroutines and neuroscience. The excellent contrast derived from the brain’s anatomy partlyrelies on water’s hydrogen nuclei ("spins") relaxation time differences in tissues. Also, theproject provides a simulation platform to demonstrate the spin behavior in a strong staticmagnetic field, reflecting the relaxation parameters. The model simulation and spin dynamicswill be derived from the Bloch equations.
