First Published in 2004. This is Volume I of six of a series on medical imaging systems techniques and applications. This subject area exemplifies a meaningful manifestation of the power of the technologies of the second industrial revolution. The first chapter in this volume on cardiovascular systems emphasizes the importance of accurate measurements of cardiac shape and dynamics as they reflect the scope of cardiac diseases, the major cause of mortality in developed countries today. Cardiac imaging plays an important role in this regard, and almost the only one in this clinical context.

The field of anatomy systems elements and diagnosis has been revolutionized by new techniques in powerful computations, image processing, and modalities such as computer-aided tomography (CAT) and magnetic resonance, among others. It is therefore an appropriate topic to be included in this series that studies the marriage of computer capabilities and medical imaging, which exemplifies a significant manifestation of relatively recent, valuable technologies known as the second industrial revolution. A few of the issues studied in this book are boundary detection and the applications of image segmentation; functional imaging; the registration of scans of patients undergoing cranio-maxillo-facial surgery; image processing techniques for the noninvasive alternative to needle biopsy for patients with liver disease; knowledge-based diagnosis support for mammogram image analysis; and input function monitors, necessary to quantify physiologic function. This book clearly reveals the effectivene

The field of brain and skeletal medical imaging has been revolutionized by new techniques in powerful computations, image processing and modalities such as computer-aided tomography and magnetic resonance, among others. It is therefore an appropriate topic to be included in this series that studies the marriage of computer capabilities and medical imaging, which exemplifies a significant manifestation of relatively recent, valuable technologies known as the second industrial revolution. A few of the issues specifically studied in this book are the advantages of MRI for brain image processing over CAT and PET techniques; applications of image processing for the diagnosis, treatment and study of brain tumors; the connection between pathological changes in brain tissue associated with neurological disease; methods for consistently identifying and quantifying, "in vivo", techniques in high resolution computed tomography to assess density and microstructure of intact bones in a single measurement; bone age assessment methods as an important procedure in diagnosing and managing endocrine disorders; and using fractals to model bone structure to aid diagnosis of osteoporosis. This book clearly reveals the effectiveness and great significance of the brain and skeletal imaging techniques and applications available and, with further development, the essential role they will play in the future.

This open access book gives a complete and comprehensive introduction to the fields of medical imaging systems, as designed for a broad range of applications. The authors of the book first explain the foundations of system theory and image processing, before highlighting several modalities in a dedicated chapter. The initial focus is on modalities that are closely related to traditional camera systems such as endoscopy and microscopy. This is followed by more complex image formation processes: magnetic resonance imaging, X-ray projection imaging, computed tomography, X-ray phase-contrast imaging, nuclear imaging, ultrasound, and optical coherence tomography.

The field of modalities has been revolutionized by powerful new computational techniques in image processing, with applications such as Computer-Aided Tomography (CAT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), among others. It is, therefore, an appropriate topic to be included in this series that studies the marriage of computer capabilities and medical imaging, exemplifying a significant illustration of relatively recent, valuable technologies known as the second industrial revolution. Examines the issues, challenges, technology, and progress of 3-D imaging, SPECT reconstruction, gastrointestinal endoscopy, and EIT. Also explores the techniques, methods and issues involving accurate quantification of neuroreceptor-binding radioglands, and reconstructing images from the four types of incompleteness that arise in computed tomography: truncated projections, hollow projections, limited angle coverage, and arbitrarily missing values in a projection. This book clearly reveals the effectiveness and gre
