This three-volume set explores Problems and Solutions in Medical
Physics. These invaluable study guides should be used in conjunction
with other key textbooks in the field to provide additional learning
opportunities.
Volume one explores Diagnostic Imaging Physics and contains problems
and solutions on key imaging modalities, exploring X-ray, mammography,
and fluoroscopy, in addition to computed tomography, magnetic resonance
imaging, and ultrasonography.
Volume two explores Nuclear Medicine and contains problems and
solutions on radioactivity and nuclear transformation, radionuclide
production and radiopharmaceuticals, non-imaging detectors and counters,
instrumentation for gamma imaging, SPECT and PET/CT, imaging techniques,
radionuclide therapy, internal radiation dosimetry, and quality control
and radiation protection in nuclear medicine.
Volume three explores Radiotherapy and contains problems and
solutions on external beam therapy equipment, photon beam physics,
radiation dosimetry, treatment planning for external beam radiotherapy,
and external beam commissioning and quality assurance.
Each chapter provides examples, notes, and references for further
reading to enhance understanding.
Features:
Consolidates concepts and assists in the understanding and applications
of theoretical concepts in medical physics
Assists lecturers and instructors in setting assignments and tests
Suitable as a revision tool for postgraduate students sitting medical
physics, oncology, and radiology sciences examinations
