1st Edition
by Krzysztof Iniewski (Editor)
A must-read for anyone working in electronics in the healthcare sector
This
one-of-a-kind book addresses state-of-the-art integrated circuit design
in the context of medical imaging of the human body. It explores new
opportunities in ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear medicine (PET, SPECT), emerging
detector technologies, circuit design techniques, new materials, and
innovative system approaches.
Divided into four clear parts and
with contributions from a panel of international experts, Medical
Imaging systematically covers:
- X-ray imaging and computed
tomography–X-ray and CT imaging principles; Active Matrix Flat Panel
Imagers (AMFPI) for diagnostic medical imaging applications; photon
counting and integrating readout circuits; noise coupling in digital
X-ray imaging
-
Nuclear medicine–SPECT and PET imaging principles; low-noise electronics for radiation sensors
-
Ultrasound imaging–Electronics for diagnostic ultrasonic imaging
-
Magnetic resonance imaging–Magnetic resonance imaging principles; MRI technology
