Physics for Diagnostic Radiology (Series in Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering Book 17)

Brian Heaton
0/5 ( ratings)
With every chapter revised and updated, Physics for Diagnostic Radiology, Third Edition continues to emphasise the importance of physics education as a critical component of radiology training. This bestselling text helps readers understand how various imaging techniques work, from planar analogue and digital radiology to computed tomography , nuclear medicine, and positron emission tomography to ultrasound imaging and magnetic resonance imaging .
New to the Third Edition












After an introductory chapter on basic physics, the book follows the x-ray imaging production of x-rays, interaction with the patient, radiation measurement, the image receptor, the radiological image, and image quality assessment. It then covers more advanced x-ray techniques as well as imaging with radioactive materials. The text also focuses on radiobiology, risk and radiation protection, and imaging with non-ionising radiation. The final chapter discusses data handling in a modern, electronic radiology department.
