Essentials of In Vivo Biomedical Imaging

"This is an excellent introductory book, valuable in its recognition of the interdisciplinary biomedical scientist researcher, and notable for its readability and well-balanced coverage. It will be appreciated by scientific researchers finding themselves involved in a project with an unfamiliar imaging technique, or by the more experienced researcher preparing to meet with an imaging specialist. It is also an attractive introductory text for a medical physicist."

"While material is presented at some depth, using appropriate mathematics, physics, and engineering when necessary for those who really want to dig into a particular imaging technique, it also is a book for the more casual user of imaging. Large fractions of the text are accessible to researchers independent of their specific scientific background, where the emphasis is on explaining what each imaging technology can measure, describing major methods and approaches, and giving examples demonstrating the rich repertoire of modern biomedical imaging to address a wide range of morphological, functional, metabolic, and molecular parameters in a safe and noninvasive manner."

"The book is well written and attractively produced and I believe it will prove genuinely useful to the target audience and also to a wider range of scientists who make use of imaging for their work or find the topic interesting."

"This textbook ... makes biomedical imaging accessible to researchers from a wide variety of academic disciplines."
-Steven Meikle, Professor of Medical Imaging Physics, The University of Sydney, Australia

"... a very good overview of in vivo biomedical imaging technologies ... appropriate for biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, and medical physics students. The inclusion of the chapter on quantitative image analysis methods is timely."
-John D. Hazle, Professor and Chairman, Department of Imaging Physics, and Bernard W. Biedenharn Chair in Cancer Research, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, USA

"Terrific book. It is essential reading for anyone using imaging as a research tool."
-Michael F. Insana, Willett Professor of Engineering, Department of Bioengineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA

"An ideal overview of medical imaging systems for anyone looking for clarity in presentation of the systems and a simple elegance to understanding them. The authors have achieved a balance of getting to the point and yet providing just enough text and illustration to understand it."
-Brian W. Pogue, Professor of Engineering, Physics & Astronomy, and Surgery, Geisel School of Medicine, Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire, USA

"An excellent book ... very comprehensive with ample color figures, which make it easy to read. I strongly recommend this book to students, scientists, and faculty that work in the field of biomedical imaging."
