Ultrasound Imaging and Therapy (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Fenster, Aaron; Lacefield, James C.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Due to improvements in image quality and the reduced cost of advanced features, ultrasound imaging is playing a greater role in the diagnosis and image-guided intervention of a wide range of diseases. Designed for individuals working on diagnostic and therapeutic applications, this book highlights the latest advances in using ultrasound imaging in image-guided interventions and ultrasound-based therapy. It presents current and emerging techniques, identifies trends in the use of ultrasound imaging, and addresses technical and computational problems that need to be solved.
