Introduction to the Science of Medical Imaging

Editat de R. Nick Bryan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 noi 2009
Revolutionary advances in imaging technology that provide high resolution, 3-D, non-invasive imaging of biological subjects have made biomedical imaging an essential tool in clinical medicine and biomedical research. Key technological advances include MRI, positron emission tomography (PET) and multidetector X-ray CT scanners. Common to all contemporary imaging modalities is the creation of digital data and pictures. The evolution from analog to digital image data is driving the rapidly expanding field of digital image analysis. Scientists from numerous disciplines now require in-depth knowledge of these complex imaging modalities. Introduction to the Science of Medical Imaging presents scientific imaging principles, introduces the major biomedical imaging modalities, reviews the basics of human and computer image analysis and provides examples of major clinical and research applications. Written by one of the world's most innovative and highly respected neuroradiologists, Introduction to the Science of Medical Imaging is a landmark text on image acquisition and interpretation.

Recenzii

'This reviewer knows of no other source in medical imaging science that lays out the whole field so interestingly and with new twists in conveying information. It is a highly recommended purchase either for an individual or a department.' American Journal of Neuroradiology
'Very well written … Excellent images and diagrams … concise and up to date … a landmark text on the science of image interpretation. The authors manage to make a very complex subject very readable … relevant figures are exceptional …' BMA Medical Book Awards reviewer
'This is a most unusual and fascinating book. It blends science, philosophy and practical imaging in a very unusual way … As somebody closely involved in imaging I found it a fascinating read.' European Radiology
