A major challenge confronting medical imaging now is the need to efficiently exploit this convergence of developments to accelerate biological and medical imaging toward the realization of its true potential. Central to all of these developments is clinical medical physics, a growing field whose importance in the clinical practice of radiology is especially strong. Around the world, tens of thousands imaging physicists are employed by healthcare facilities or consulting groups. These individuals are tasked with properly setting up and optimally operating medical imaging devices to achieve the highest diagnostic performance and patient safety. They also constantly consult directly with radiologists and other clinical imaging staff on day to day issues ranging from basic technology to image refinement, interpretation, and diagnostics. Despite a substantial knowledgebase on the practice of medical physics in clinical imaging, until now medical physicists and radiologists have not had the benefit of a single-source reference and textbook on the science and clinical application of medical physics"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aDiagnostic imaging$xMethodology 615 0$aDiagnostic imaging$xMethodology. 676 $a616.0754 702 $aSamei$b Ehsan 702 $aPfeiffer$b Douglas E. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910555124003321 996 $aClinical imaging physics$92817706 997 $aUNINA
