Advances in CT
Radiologists who already use the SOMATOM PLUS computed tomography system discuss their experiences in this report of a User Conference in March, 1990. The distinct advantage of this system in which the whole measuring system rotates continuously is emphasized. More than fifty participants from nine European countries present scientific papers, discuss clinical experience and consider future prospects.

Advances in Neuroimaging of the Fetus and Newborn, an Issue of Clinics in Perinatology, E-Book (Clinics: Internal Medicine, #49)
MRI PHYSICS MRI PHYSICS TECH TO TECH EXPLANATIONS Technologists must have a solid understanding of the physics behind Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), including safety, the hows and whys of the quantum physics of the MR phenomenon, and how to competently operate MRI scanners. Generating the highest quality images of the human body involves thorough knowledge of scanner hardware, pulse sequences, image contrast, geometric parameters, and tissue suppression techniques. MRI Physics: Tech to Tec...
Neuroradiology: Key Differential Diagnoses and Clinical Questions E-Book
by Juan Small, Pamela W Schaefer, Asha Sarma, and Paul Bunch
The sixth edition has been revised and extended. The whole textbook is now clearly partitioned into basic and advanced material in order to cope with the ever-increasing field of digital image processing. In this way, you can first work your way through the basic principles of digital image processing without getting overwhelmed by the wealth of the material and then extend your studies to selected topics of interest. Each chapter now includes exercises that help you to test your understanding,...
The rapid developments in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) over the past 20 years have affirmed its supremacy over most other means of non-invasive exploration of the human body. This progress has had other consequences for imaging physicists: having knowledge about only one of the sides of MRI is nowadays no longer enough to develop new sequences or even to learn more about those that already exist. It is necessary to have a clear and precise view of all the fields explored today by this imagin...
The third volume of A New History of Ireland opens with a character study of early modern Ireland and a panoramic survey of Ireland in 1534, followed by twelve chapters of narrative history. There are further chapters on the economy, the coinage, languages and literature, and the Irish abroad. -;A New History of Ireland is the largest scholarly project in modern Irish history. In 9 volumes, it provides a comprehensive new synthesis of modern scholarship on every aspect of Irish history and prehi...

Landmark-Based Image Analysis (Computational Imaging and Vision, #21)
by Karl Rohr
Landmarks are preferred image features for a variety of computer vision tasks such as image mensuration, registration, camera calibration, motion analysis, 3D scene reconstruction, and object recognition. Main advantages of using landmarks are robustness w. r. t. lightning conditions and other radiometric vari ations as well as the ability to cope with large displacements in registration or motion analysis tasks. Also, landmark-based approaches are in general com putationally efficient, partic...
The Biophysics of Photosynthesis (Biophysics for the Life Sciences, #11)
The volume is intended as an introduction to the physical principles governing the main processes that occur in photosynthesis, with emphasis on the light reactions and electron transport chain. A unique feature of the photosynthetic apparatus is the fact that the molecular structures are known in detail for essentially all of its major components. The availability of this data has allowed their functions to be probed at a very fundamental level to discover the design principles that have guided...
Fluorescence Spectroscopy and Microscopy (Methods in Molecular Biology, #1076)
