Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photoacoustic and Photothermal Spectroscopy: Principles and Applications introduces the basic principles, instrumentation and major developments in the many applications of Photoacoustic and Photothermal Spectroscopy over the last three decades. The book explains the processes of sound generation by periodic optical excitation and ultrasonic generation by pulsed laser excitation and describes the workings of photoacoustic cells equipped with microphones and piezoelectric transducers.

Download or read book Nanomaterials written by S. C. Singh and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-10-22 with total page 793 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first in-depth treatment of the synthesis, processing, and characterization of nanomaterials using lasers, ranging from fundamentals to the latest research results, this handy reference is divided into two main sections. After introducing the concepts of lasers, nanomaterials, nanoarchitectures and laser-material interactions in the first three chapters, the book goes on to discuss the synthesis of various nanomaterials in vacuum, gas and liquids. The second half discusses various nanomaterial characterization techniques involving lasers, from Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopies to light dynamic scattering, laser spectroscopy and such unusual techniques as laser photo acoustic, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy, ultrafast dynamics and laser-induced thermal pulses. The specialist authors adopt a practical approach throughout, with an emphasis on experiments, set-up, and results. Each chapter begins with an introduction and is uniform in covering the basic approaches, experimental setups, and dependencies of the particular method on different parameters, providing sufficient theory and modeling to understand the principles behind the techniques.

Download or read book Quantification of Biophysical Parameters in Medical Imaging written by Ingolf Sack and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this book offers six new chapters covering the latest developments in quantitative medical imaging, including artificial intelligence, MRI mapping, sonography, elastography and cardiac CT. All the other existing chapters have been updated and expanded, many with new text and figures, to reflect the rapid translation and advancement of technology in this exciting area of biomedical research. This updated edition presents fundamental knowledge on the imaging quantification of biophysical parameters for clinical diagnostic purposes. Clinical imaging scanners are considered by the authors as physical measurement systems capable of quantifying intrinsic parameters for the representation of the constitution and biophysical properties of tissues in vivo. In one respect, this approach fosters the development of new imaging methods for highly reproducible, system-independent, and quantitative biomarkers. These methods are greatly detailed in the book. Alternatively, this new edition equips the reader with a better understanding of how the physical properties of tissues interact with signal generation in medical imaging, opening up new insights into the complex and fascinating relationship between structure and function in living tissues. This updated edition is of interest to all those who recognize the limitations of clinical diagnosis based primarily on visual inspection of images, and who wish to learn more about the diagnostic potential of quantitative, biophysically-based medical imaging markers, as well as the challenges posed by the scarcity of such markers for next-generation imaging technologies.
