Reviews for Introduction to Medical Imaging: Physics, Engineering and Clinical Applications
"This is an excellently prepared textbook for a senior/first year graduate level course. It explains physical concepts in an easily understandable manner. In addition, a problem set is included after each chapter. Very few books on the market today have this choice. I would definitely use it for teaching a medical imaging class at USC." - K. ...
