Description for The Radon Transform and Medical Imaging
Paperback. A guide to the mathematical ideas and techniques behind medical imaging modalities, suitable for researchers and graduate students. Num Pages: 260 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: PBK. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 170 x 253 x 12. Weight in Grams: 438.
The Radon transform, which represents the scattering data arising from a tomographic scan, underpins the mathematical foundations of medical imaging. This book surveys the mathematics behind some well-established imaging modalities such as X-ray CT and emission tomography, as well as a variety of newly developing coupled physics or hybrid techniques, including thermoacoustic tomography. Presented in this treatment are explanations of important concepts such as inversion, stability, incomplete data effects, the role of interior information, and other critical issues. In addition to emphasising mathematical ideas from across the spectrum of medical imaging modalities, the author provides a vast bibliography, and appendices ... Read more
