IONIZING RADIATION DETECTORS FOR MEDICAL IMAGING - описание и краткое содержание, автор ALBERTO DEL GUERRA (EN), читать бесплатно онлайн на сайте электронной библиотеки Lib-King.Ru.

Ionizing Radiation Detectors for Medical Imaging contains ten technical chapters, half of which are devoted to radiology and the other half to nuclear medicine. The last chapter describes the detectors for radiotherapy and portal imaging. Each chapter addresses completely a specific application. The emphasis is always on detector fundamentals and detector properties. Where necessary, software and specific applications are described in depth.This book is intended for graduate and undergraduate students in physics and engineering who want to study medical imaging. In addition, scientists who are working in a specific sub-field of medical imaging can acquire from the book an up-to-date description of the state of the art in related sub-fields, within the scope of ionizing radiation detectors. Other scientists, as well as physicians, can use the book as a reference for medical imaging.Contents:Conventional RadiologyDetectors for Digital RadiographyDetectors for CT ScannersSpecial Applications in RadiologyAutoradiographySPECT and Planar Imaging in Nuclear MedicinePositron Emission TomographyNuclear Medicine: Special Applications in Functional ImagingSmall Animal ScannersDetectors for RadiotherapyReadership: Upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, academics and practitioners in nuclear medicine, medical imaging and radiology.
