abstract = "In this chapter, we will discuss the basic principles of signal generation and image formation in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We will start with a description of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) phenomenon and then gradually arrive at the mathematical expressions for MRI signal in spatial domain and k-space domain. Then we describe the image reconstruction methods typically used in MRI, the signal-to-noise ratio calculation methods in MRI, and common MR image formats. A key focus of the contents of this chapter is on the formation of phase images in MRI. We do not intend to provide a comprehensive overview of MRI. Instead, the contents are intended for readers interested in performing research in electromagnetic properties mapping using MRI. Nevertheless, considering the generality of the contents, any reader interested in developing a quick understanding of the physical and mathematical background of MRI can find this chapter helpful.",
