Chapter 1. Overview -- Chapter 2. Medical imaging technology and terminology -- Chapter 3. Digital imaging in diagnostic radiology -- Chapter 4. Physical determinants of contrast -- Chapter 5. Mathematics for linear systems -- Chapter 6. Spatial resolution -- Chapter 7. Random processes -- Chapter 8. Noise and detective quantum efficiency -- Chapter 9. Noise-resolution model -- Chapter 10. The Rose model -- Chapter 11. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis -- Chapter 12. Digital subtraction angiography -- Chapter 13. Temporal filtering -- Chapter 14. Computed tomography -- Chapter 15. Single-photon emission computed tomography -- Chapter 16. Magnetic resonance imaging.
"Authored by a leading educator, this book teaches the fundamental mathematics and physics concepts associated with medical imaging systems. Going beyond mere description of imaging modalities, this book delves into the mechanisms of image formation and image quality common to all imaging systems: contrast mechanisms, noise, and spatial and temporal resolution, making it an important reference for medical physicists and biomedical engineering students. This is an extensively revised new edition of The Physics of Medical X-Ray Imaging by Bruce Hasegawa (Medical Physics Publishing, 1991), and includes a wide range of modalities such as X-ray CT, MRI and SPECT"--
