What You Should Know about Your Ultrasound Examinations
MRI/DTI Atlas of the Rat Brain
by George Paxinos, Charles Watson, Evan Calabrese, Alexandra Badea, and G Allan Johnson
MRI/DTI Atlas of the Rat Brain offers two major enhancements when compared with earlier attempts to make MRI/DTI rat brain atlases. First, the spatial resolution at 25µm is considerably higher than previous data published. Secondly, the comprehensive set of MRI/DTI contrasts provided has enabled the authors to identify more than 80% of structures identified in The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates.
Human health as well as aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems are threatened from increa sing levels of environmental radiation of various sources, many of them of anthropoge nic causality: large areas of the former Soviet Union suffer from radioactive pollution, in particular after the Chemobyl accident; the increase in the incidence of UVB radiati on at the Earth's surface as a result of a progressive depletion of stratospheric ozone is a global problem that requires international concerted ac...
Manual de electrofisiología clínica y ablación
by Naiara Calvo and Lluís Mont
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, a technique widely used for structure determination by chemists and biochemists, is based on the detection of tiny radio signals emitted by the nucleus of an atom when immersed in a strong magnetic field. Every chemical substance gives rise to a recognizable NMR signature closely related to its molecular structure. This comprehensive account adopts an accessible, pictorial approach to teach the fundamental principles of high resolution NMR. Mathemat...
Diagnostic Ultrasound and Animal Reproduction (Current Topics in Veterinary Medicine, #51)
The use of ultrasonic imaging techniques for diagnostic purposes in veteri nary medicine and animal science has lagged far behind their use in human medicine. In the area of domestic animal reproduction, diagnostic ultrasono graphy has a relatively short history. Reports on B-mode scanning first appeared as late as 1969, when Stouffer and co-workers used it for counting foetal numbers in late gestation sheep. After Lindahl had re-evaluated the potential of two-dimensional ultrasonography for p...
Molecular imaging is primarily about the chemistry of novel biological probes, yet the vast majority of practitioners are not chemists or biochemists. This is the first book, written from a chemist's point of view, to address the nature of the chemical interaction between probe and environment to help elucidate biochemical detail instead of bulk anatomy. Covers all of the fundamentals of modern imaging methodologies, including their techniques and application within medicine and industryFocu...

by Bryan R Foster and Ganeh Fananapazir
Brain and Spine E-Book (EXPERTddx)
by Miral D Jhaveri, Karen L Salzman, and Jeffrey S Ross
Interventional Radiology E-Book (Diagnostic Imaging)
by Brandt C Wible
This book provides a comprehensive coverage of sensor and lab-on-a-chip technologies for medical applications. Presenting a unified coverage of the operational principles and fabrication issues of the sensors and related chips, this important compendium describes the contemporary electronic devices that help to identify and effectively combat different diseases and malfunctions of the human body. It is intended to serve as an essential textbook or reference book for graduate/postgraduate student...
qMRI is a rapidly evolving scientific field of high current interest because it has the potential of radically changing the clinical and research practices of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This focuses solely on the theoretical aspects of qMRI, which are treated and analyzed at three different spatial scales, specifically: i) the quantum physics scale of individual spins; ii) the semi-classical physics scale of spin packets; and iii) the imaging scale of voxels. Topics are presented paying p...
Breast Imaging, E-Book (The Core Requisites)
by Bonnie N Joe and Amie Y Lee
Want to incorporate medical infrared imaging into your practice but can’t find a book that explains how to do it? Well, this book is for you! Complete, practical instructions are provided on imager choice and care as well as the physical needs of a thermography service from the imaging room layout to the computer requirements.
