Medical Physics / Diagnostic Imaging / CT & Ultrasound
Published for the American Association of Physicists in Medicine by the American Institute of Physics, this substantial hardcover volume examines the medical physics underlying computed tomography and ultrasound, with particular emphasis on tissue imaging and characterization. Edited by Gary D. Fullerton and James A. Zagzebski, it was prepared from manuscripts presented at the 1980 AAPM Summer School at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse.
Issued as Medical Physics Monograph No. 6, the book presents highly technical material concerning imaging principles, radiation interaction, attenuation, dose calculations, tissue characteristics, image formation, instrumentation, and quantitative methods used in CT and diagnostic ultrasound. Its equations, diagrams, experimental findings, and specialized discussions make it an important historical reference for medical physicists, radiologists, imaging researchers, biomedical engineers, university libraries, and collectors of early diagnostic-imaging literature.
This is the uncommon original 1980 hardcover edition with its red dust jacket. ISBN 0-88318-279-3.
The hardcover itself remains in very good overall condition with bright gold lettering, a solid binding, and clean, well-preserved pages. The dust jacket shows noticeable shelf wear with rubbing, creasing, and several tears and chips around the edges, but remains present and continues to protect the book. Please review the photographs for the exact condition.
