Description for Physical Principles of Medical Ultrasonics
Hardcover. The physical properties of ultrasound, particularly its highly directional beam behaviour, and its complex interactions with human tissues, have led to its becoming a vitally important tool in both investigative and interventional medicine. This book treats the phenomenon of ultrasound in the context of medical and biological applications. Editor(s): Hill, C. R.; Bamber, J. C.; Haar, G. R. Ter. Num Pages: 528 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: MMPF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 253 x 176 x 35. Weight in Grams: 1022.
The physical properties of ultrasound, particularly its highly directional beam behaviour, and its complex interactions with human tissues, have led to its becoming a vitally important tool in both investigative and interventional medicine, and one that still has much exciting potential.
This new edition of a well-received book treats the phenomenon of ultrasound in the context of medical and biological applications, systematically discussing fundamental physical principles and concepts. Rather than focusing on earlier treatments, based largely on the simplifications of geometrical acoustics, this book examines concepts of wave acoustics, introducing them in the very first chapter.
