Description ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author(s): Atam P. Dhawan Publisher: Wiley-IEEE Press Date: 2011 Pages: 390 Format: PDF Language: English ISBN-10: 0470622059 ISBN-13: 978-0470622056 Size: 22.6 MB ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now updated - the most comprehensive reference of medical imaging modalities and image analysis techniques. The last two decades have witnessed revolutionary advances in medical imaging and computerized medical image processing. With the advent and enhancement of numerous sophisticated medical imaging modalities, intelligent processing of multi-dimensional images has become critical in radiological and diagnostic applications. This benchmark text takes a unique, all-inclusive approach to the topic - one that weaves together medical physics, medical imaging instrumentation, and advanced image analysis methods. This Second Edition is completely revised and expanded to provide a broader foundation, helping engineers, medical professionals, and students alike understand medical imaging principles, perform intelligent image interpretation, and navigate the intricacies of instrumentation, data collection, image reconstruction, and computerized image analysis for radiological computer-aided evaluation and diagnosis. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New chapters cover: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- More in-depth description of recent developments in medical imaging instrumentation, including spiral CT, diagnostic ultrasound, functional MRI, and Diffusion Tension Imaging Simultaneous multi-modality medical imaging, including CT-SPECT and CT-PET Advanced medical image analysis and classification methods for computer-aided diagnosis, and therapeutic intervention This updated edition presents individual chapters focused on x-ray, MRI, nuclear medicine, and ultrasound imaging modalities with additional details and recent advances. In addition, chapters on image reconstructions and visualizations have been significantly enhanced to include, respectively, 3-D statistical estimation-based reconstruction methods, feature classification and multi-modality image visualization. Examples with clinical images for medical image analysis and computer-aided diagnosis are provided throughout, as well as skill-building MATLAB exercises. An ideal learning tool, this state-of-the-art resource can be used for one- or two-semester based senior undergraduate and/or graduate-level courses. Students in medical imaging and image processing, electrical and computer engineering, computer science, and biomedical engineering as well as physicians, medical physicists, and researchers will gain the knowledge to master the complexities of today's radiological and diagnostic applications. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reviews: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This introductory text should be useful for senior undergraduate or graduate students in a medical image analysis course. --Optical & Photonics News, April 2006 ...an excellent introductory text.... I would strongly recommend the text... a welcomed addition to the personal libraries of students within these professional disciplines. --Health Physics, Vol. 86, No. 4, March 2004 The book clearly reviews the various basic elements of medical imaging and of imaging reconstruction, and I would recommend it for the library of any Department of Radiology to be read by the junior residents and also consulted by the more senior members. --Clinical Imaging, Vol. 28, No. 1 January/February 2004 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About the Author: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Atam P.
