"Medizin Pharmazie Klinik und Praxis Image Quality Mammography patient dose patient dose evaluation radiation imaging physics Radiologie Röntgen scatter reduction techniques X-ray attenuation X-ray dosimetry X-ray physics X-ray spectra Radiation Exposure and Image Quality in X-Ray This completely updated second edition of Radiation Exposure and Image Quality in X-ray Diagnostic Radiology provides the reader with detailed guidance on the optimization of radiological imaging. The basic physical principles of diagnostic radiology are first presented in detail, and their application to clinical problems is then carefully explored. The final section is a supplement containing tables of data and graphical depictions of X-ray spectra, interaction coefficients, characteristics of X-ray beams, and other aspects relevant to patient dose calculations. In addition, a complementary CD-ROM contains a user-friendly Excel file database covering these aspects that can be used in the reader's own programs. This book will be an invaluable aid to medical physicists when performing calculations relating to patient dose and image quality, and will also prove useful for diagnostic radiologists and engineers. Besprechung / Review zu "Radiation Exposure and Image Quality in X-Ray Diagnostic Radiology": From the reviews: "This textbook deals with the central concern of professionals working in diagnostic imaging. it treats the material in greater depth than is usual in standard radiological physics textbooks. The strength of the work resides in its structured treatment of topics that are pivotal in diagnostic imaging and also CT. I would recommend it as an invaluable reference work for scientists working in diagnostic imaging. It should be of particular value to those involved in the training of staff in the field." (Dr M Casey, RAD Magazine, May, 2004) "The book derives from a wide range of knowledge, scientific data, and extensive practical experience accumulated over the years. This book, which is a clear and comprehensive scientific overview, provides a reference for physicists, engineers, and other experts working on problems of image quality, patient dose estimation, and the establishment of diagnostic reference levels. Its launch at this time is well chosen, as European experts are much concerned with the demands of CEC 97/43 publication (MED)." (O.

Hardcover. Condizione: gut. Auflage: 2nd ed. 2012. Computed tomography (CT) is a powerful technique providing precise and confident diagnoses. The burgeoning use of CT has resulted in an exponential increase in collective radiation dose to the population. Despite investigations supporting the use of lower radiation doses, surveys highlight the lack of proper understanding of CT parameters that affect radiation dose. Dynamic advances in CT technology also make it important to explain the latest dose-saving strategies in an easy-to-comprehend manner. This book aims to review all aspects of the radiation dose from CT and to provide simple rules and tricks for radiologists and radiographers that will assist in the appropriate use of CT technique. The second edition includes a number of new chapters on the most up-to-date strategies and technologies for radiation dose reduction while updating the outstanding contents of the first edition. Vendor perspectives are included, and an online image gallery will also be available to readers. In englischer Sprache. 400 pages. 3,3 x 19,3 x 26,3 cm.
