Webb's Physics of Medical Imaging (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Flower, M.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Since the publication of the best-selling first edition, the technology and clinical applications of medical imaging have changed significantly. Gathering these developments into one volume, this comprehensive second edition presents the basic physics, modern technology, and up-to-date examples of clinical application across all the modalities of medical imaging. It now covers state-of-the-art detector technology and computer processing used in medical imaging. Along with many new examples and figures, this edition includes new chapters on medical image processing and multimodality imaging.
