Physics of Mammographic Imaging (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Markey, Mia K.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A comprehensive treatment of developments in this field, this book covers the fundamentals of image formation, image interpretation, analysis, and modeling. It includes coverage of the use of mammographic imaging in the detection, diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of breast cancer. Expert authors give a balanced summary of core topics such as digital mammography, contrast-enhanced mammography, stereomammography, breast tomosynthesis, and breast CT. The book highlights the use of mammographic imaging with complementary breast imaging modalities such as ultrasound, MRI, and nuclear medicine techniques. It discusses critical issues such as computer-aided diagnosis, perception, and quality assurance.
