Course Description

The course has been designed for students wanting to be introduced into the MRI field. It will provide the basic knowledge of the MR signal and the MRI scanner. Progressively, it will go through all MRI standards, safety rules and requirements needed in order to properly fulfill the L1/L2 operator duties. The course will then provide practical training at the Siemens MAGNETOM Prisma 3T  for all participants in order to correctly help (L1) and operate (L2) the MRI scanner. Additionally, it will be discussed the endogenous BOLD contrast reflecting the oxygenation level of the human brain´s vasculature. Furthermore, it will cover some aspects of the fMRI experimental designs, the BOLD specificity and its limits.
Course will be given in English.
