Authored by a leading educator, this book teaches the fundamental
mathematics and physics concepts associated with medical imaging
systems. Going beyond mere description of imaging modalities,
this book delves into the mechanisms of image formation and image
quality common to all imaging systems: contrast mechanisms,
noise, and spatial and temporal resolution, making it an
important reference for medical physicists and biomedical
engineering students. This is an extensively revised new edition
of The Physics of Medical X-Ray Imaging by Bruce Hasegawa
(Medical Physics Publishing, 1991), and includes a wide range of
modalities such as X-ray CT, MRI and SPECT.
