MRI Physics for Beginners

This package contains the slides from the video presentation "MRI Physics made easy", available in three PDF formats:

• Full-size slides – One slide per page, great for viewing on screen

• Handout version – Six slides per page, ideal for quick review

• Note-taking version – Three slides per page with space for your own notes

These are the slides from my video "MRI Physics made easy". The presentation explains MRI physics in a clear, accessible way, aimed at radiology residents and clinicians. Starting with the basics of the magnetic field and resonance, it covers core concepts like T1 and T2 relaxation, spin echo sequences, and the free induction decay signal. You'll also learn how repetition time (TR) and echo time (TE) shape image contrast, and how to generate T1- and T2-weighted images. Everything is presented with practical examples and clinical relevance in mind, making this a solid introduction or refresher.

I’ll walk you through the entire process—step by step—from basic signal physics to the principles behind contrast generation in clinical MRI.
