DESCRIPTION:
The enormous technical advances in computed tomography, including multislice acquisition and 3D image reconstruction, digital imaging in the form of image plate and direct radiography, magnetic resonance imaging, colour flow imaging in ultrasound and positron radiopharmaceuticals in nuclear medicine, are all considered here. The text concludes with a series of general topics relating to diagnostic imaging.The content has been revised and updated throughout to ensure it remains in line with the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) examination, while European and American perspectives on technology, guidelines and regulations ensure international relevance.. The content includes a review of basic science aspects of imaging, followed by a detailed explanation of radiological sciences, conventional x-ray image formation and other imaging techniques. Over recent years there has been a vast expansion in the variety of imagin
"Four Stars" according to Amazon Customer. The condition is fine.. Adrian Brady said "2nd. edition updates thoroughly" according to Adrian Brady. As a committed user and fan of the first edition of this book, I awaited its updating in a second edition eagerly. Drs. Dowsett, Kenny and Johnston have not disappointed.
