Problems and Solutions in Medical Physics: Diagnostic Imaging: Series in Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering
Autor Kwan Hoong Ng, Jeannie Hsiu Ding Wong, Geoffrey Clarkeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 apr 2027
Since the publication of the first edition, diagnostic imaging has continued to advance rapidly, with significant developments in computed tomography, artificial intelligence and radiomics. In response to these developments, the second edition has been carefully reviewed and updated. Existing problems have been refined, solutions have been strengthened and expanded where appropriate, and selected content has been revised to better reflect current clinical practice and evolving standards.
One hundred and sixty-two solved problems are presented across ten chapters covering core topics, including X-Ray Production, Digital Radiography, Image Quality, Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Ultrasound, Radiation Protection, Radiobiology, Artificial Intelligence and Radiomics. The problems are designed to illustrate and augment the underlying theory, while reinforcing fundamental principles to enhance learning and information retention.
This book forms part of a four-volume set of medical physics problems and solutions. The companion volumes address radiotherapy physics, nuclear medicine physics and radiation protection.
Features:
- Consolidates concepts and assists in the understanding and applications of theoretical concepts in medical physics
- Suitable as a revision tool for postgraduate students sitting medical physics, radiation oncology and radiology science examinations
- Each chapter provides examples, notes and references for further reading to enhance understanding.

Descriere
This volume serves as a study guide and revision resource for postgraduate students preparing for examinations in diagnostic imaging. The problems and solutions presented reflect the typical syllabi adopted by universities and training programmes worldwide.
Recenzii
"There are very few problem-and-solution books available for Medical Physics courses and university teachers often have to hunt through several books to find suitable exercises to give to their students for practice or for assessment purposes - and often end up writing such items themselves - which is time consuming.
Problems and Solution in Medical Physics - Diagnostic Imaging Physics by Kwan Hoong Ng, Jeannie Hsiu Ding Wong, Geoffrey D. Clarke therefore fills an important void in Medical Physics education which many university teachers will very much appreciate. The book is very well-structured with chapters following the syllabus structure of established diagnostic imaging physics modules at most universities. The layout of the problems and solutions makes it easy for students to follow and makes the book an excellent resource for students to consolidate concepts learned during lectures and for exam revision. The answers and solutions to the problems and questions indicate the expected level of detail when responding to examination questions which will also help students learn to be succinct in their answers. The authors avoid complex or ambiguous language making the book very much suitable for an international audience."

Caruana, PhD, FIPEM is Head Medical Physics Department, University of Malta, former Chair of the Education and Training Committee of the European Federation of Organizations for Medical Physics and member of the Accreditation Committee of the International Medical Physics Certification Board
