Progress in MRI is NOT ubiquitous

Abstract

There has been tremendous progress in MRI over the past 40+ years, driven by advances in technology as well as human ingenuity, with considerable impact in medicine. However, our understanding of how to account for, and interpret, MRI properties quantitatively lags behind these technical advances. This lack of understanding will limit our ability to make full use of quantitative metrics in the future, and much more work is needed to bridge this knowledge gap.
