  • Grating-Based X-Ray Phase-Contrast Mammography

    by Kai Hermann Scherer ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis offers an accessible guide to biomedical phase-contrast imaging with over 20 radiographic illustrations. It focuses on research to improve radiography, and particularly mammography applications, by using a novel X-ray imaging modality that exploits the wave-nature of X-rays, rather than just their absorption in tissue. Further, it explores a broad range of potential applications – from ... Read more

  • MRI from Picture to Proton

    by Donald W. McRobbie, Elizabeth A. Moore, Martin J. Graves, Martin R. Prince ...
    MRI from Picture to Proton presents the basics of MR practice and theory in a unique way: backwards! The subject is approached just as a new MR practitioner would encounter MRI: starting from the images, equipment and scanning protocols, rather than pages of physics theory. The reader is brought face-to-face with issues pertinent to practice immediately, filling in the theoretical background as ... Read more

  • Interventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Edited by Thomas Kahn, Harald Busse ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    The idea of using the enormous potential of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) not only for diagnostic but also for interventional purposes may seem obvious, but it took major efforts by engineers, physicists, and clinicians to come up with dedicated interventional techniques and scanners, and improvements are still ongoing. Since the inception of interventional MRI in the mid-1990s, the numbers of ... Read more
