The Three Worlds of MRI

Robert Turner

2024

Abstract

The development of MRI from its beginnings in 1972 provides many lessons in the mutual benefits obtained when experts in three quite different disciplines learn to communicate with each other. Important technical breakthroughs have occurred every few years. I will describe eight of these, largely based on my own experience, and show how the differing perspectives of basic scientists, industrial engineers and medical professionals such as radiologists have combined fruitfully to enable a transformation in how we humans understand our bodies and brains, in sickness and in health.
