Farrs Physics for Medical Imaging

Written by topic experts, this new edition of Farr's Physics for Medical Imaging is designed specifically for trainee radiologists preparing for the physics component of their FRCR exams. The book effectively explains the principles and techniques behind the most common forms of medical imaging, including X-ray, CT, ultrasound, MRI, nuclear medicine, and fluoroscopy. Trainee radiologists and radiographers will find this an easy to understand and useful adjunct to their exam preparation - even those who haven't studied physics since school. INDICE: 1 Radiation physics 2 Radiation hazards and protection 3 Imaging with X-rays 4 Film-screen radiography (potentially to be deleted or significantly shortened) 5 Digital radiography 6 Fluroscopy 7 Computed tomography 8 Gamma imaging 9 Imaging with ultrasound 10 Magnetic resonance imaging Potential new chapters on: Optical imaging and a separate chapter for PET-CT content as will need to be expanded significantly.
