Produktbeschreibung
New technologies and knowledge-based databases as well as breakthroughs in image processing have elevated infrared imaging to the leagues of ultrasound and X-ray as a low-cost and easy-to-use diagnostic tool. Featuring chapters drawn from the third edition of the best-selling "Handbook of Biomedical Engineering" as well as new contributions not found in the handbook, "Infrared Imaging" presents new concepts along with the latest developments in infrared imaging technology. With coverage ranging from historical background and fundamental concepts to clinical applications, standards, and infrared technology, this book also includes approximately 25 per cent new contributions not found in the original handbook.
Edited by the inventor of the MedATR concept that lead to the first IR-CAD for the early detection of breast cancer, Medical Infrared Imaging presents many of the new ideas, concepts, and technologies that are key to the acceptance of infrared imaging as a viable, non-invasive, low-cost, first-line detection modality. Presenting revolutionary advances and their medical applications, the book provides comprehensive information on the resulting technology and hardware. It covers the fundamentals of thermal imaging, cutting-edge concepts, novel processing techniques, and new applications in diagnostics and therapeutic monitoring. The book emphasizes the importance of standardization, calibration, and protocols; databases for storage and retrieval of images; and ethical obligations.
