✦ Synopsis
The next invited editorial comes from the immediate past President of the ISMRM, Dr. Chris Boesch. His overview provides a special perspective on the rapid development and application of MRI over a relatively short period of time, involving the award of 13 Nobel Prizes, including one to his own major professor. His overview of this process from his perspective as a recognized, elected ISMRM officer and as a Swiss physician-investigator follows below. The article includes 31 references that help to focus on the history of the development of MRI. Additional commentary for supportive or conflicting views is invited for consideration for publication in JMRI.
