Download or read book Computed Tomography written by Luca Saba and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computed Tomography (CT), and in particular multi-detector-row computed tomography (MDCT), is a powerful non-invasive imaging tool with a number of advantages over the others non- invasive imaging techniques. CT has evolved into an indispensable imaging method in clinical routine. It was the first method to non-invasively acquire images of the inside of the human body that were not biased by superimposition of distinct anatomical structures. The first generation of CT scanners developed in the 1970s and numerous innovations have improved the utility and application field of the CT, such as the introduction of helical systems that allowed the development of the "volumetric CT" concept. In this book we want to explore the applications of CT from medical imaging to other fields like physics, archeology and computer aided diagnosis. Recently interesting technical, anthropomorphic, forensic and archeological as well as paleontological applications of computed tomography have been developed. These applications further strengthen the method as a generic diagnostic tool for non- destructive material testing and three-dimensional visualization beyond its medical use.

Download or read book Computed Tomography For Learning Technologist written by Isidor Manuat Jardin and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-08-13 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book fills an immense need within the CT technologist education genre. There are many books on CT for techs: physics, imaging anatomy and case studies, and scanning primers. There are fewer that take the express role of a hands-on, practical, day-to-day training guide in addition to ensuring that all the key safety and patient care principles are followed. The need became very clear to us in practice as we worked very hard to train many x-rays and nuclear medicine technologists to become CT certified and, more importantly, become expert technologists who can think on the fly, ask their radiologists the right questions, and in all cases help use fundamental principles to improve imaging protocols, contrast bolus timing, radiation dose monitoring management, and post-processing. To be comprehensive Isidor has included our well tested curriculum, which we certainly recommend. In addition, there is great primary material for learning and future reference." Payam Massaband, M.D. Clinical Associate Professor of Radiology Chief, Radiology Service, VA Palo Alto Health Care System This book is intended for learning radiologic technology on OJT, on volunteer status, preparing to take the CT certification exam, and teaching facility mentors (experienced employees or supervisors). It contains material intended for educational purposes only and uses in conjunction with any CT reviewer workbook to enhance the experience of learning. There are 5 chapters in this book: Chapter 1, "Structured 3 Months Daily CT On-the-Job Training for Radiologic Technologist, consists of 3 Months of Daily Training Syllabus, 5 Days a Week for 12 Weeks", contains 4 training modules. Chapter 2, "Understanding the Equipment and the Technologist's Role", contains 6 reading modules.

The book also discusses the principles of MRI pulse sequencing and signal generation, gradient fields, and the methodologies implemented for image formation, form flow imaging and magnetic resonance angiography and the basic physics of acoustic waves, the different acquisition modes used in medical ultrasound, and the methodologies implemented for image formation and flow imaging using the Doppler Effect. By the end of the book, readers will know what is expected from a medical image, will comprehend the issues involved in producing and assessing the quality of a medical image, will be able to conceptually implement this knowledge in the development of a new imaging modality, and will be able to write basic algorithms for image reconstruction. Knowledge of calculus, linear algebra, regular and partial differential equations, and a familiarity with the Fourier transform and it applications is expected, along with fluency with computer programming. The book contains exercises, homework problems, and sample exam questions that are exemplary of the main concepts and formulae students would encounter in a clinical setting.
