PThe book introduces the fundamental aspects of digital imaging and covers fourmain themes BR Ultrasound techniques and imaging applications BR Magneticresonance and MPJ in hospital BR Digital imaging with Xrays BR Emissiontomography PET and SPECT. PPEach of these topics is developed by analysingthe underlying physics principles and their implementation quality and safetyaspects clinical performance and recent advancements in the field. Some issuesspecific to the individual techniques are also treated e.g. choice ofradioisotopes or contrast agents optimisation of data acquisition and storagereadout electronics modelling and computer algorithms for imaging andmeasurement in ultrasounds and tomography applications. All topics arepresented with didactical language and style making this book an appropriatereference for students and professionals seeking a comprehensive introductionto the field as well as a reliable outlook on the most recent developments.P TOCPFrom the contentsPPPreface.
