Don’t fret about learning MRI Physics! Join our proton buddies on a journey into the MR scanner's magnetic field, where they encounter radiofrequency pulses, generate echos, and combat T2* effects! We take it back to basics, focusing on the fundamentals of magnetic resonance and reviewing the components of a simple spin echo sequence.
