hydrogen nuclei to emit their own signals which are
then converted to images by a computer

A

MRI

77
Q

Q

t1 and t2 phenomena are different processes that are
related to the return of _to alignment with the _

A

protons, magnetic field

80
Q

Following the RF pulse, 2 things happen:

A

○ The protons gain longitudinal magnetization or realign with the
magnetic field
○ The protons lose their transverse
magnetization

images is created based on differences in T1 and T2 and _,
or number of hydrogen nuclei in the different tissues

proton density

82
Q

TR (Time to Repetition)
TE (Time to Echo)
