Nueva edicion de la obra mas conocida e implantada en radiologia para tecnicos. El objetivo de este manual es triple: trasmitir conocimientos basicos de fisica radiologica, preparar a los estudiantes para sus examenes y proporcionar una base de conocimientos para que los radiologos en ejercicio puedan tomar decisiones documentadas sobre factores tecnicos, calidad de la imagen diagnostica y tratamiento de la radiacion para los pacientes y el personal. Proporciona una presentacion solida de la ciencia radiologica, incluidas las bases de la fisica radiologica, tecnicas de imagen, radiobiologia y proteccion radiologica. Algunos de los temas mas importantes tratados son la mamografia, fluoroscopia, procedimientos intervensionistas, tomografia computerizada espiral con multiples cortes y los diversos modos emergentes de imagen digital. Esta edicion tambien presenta objetivos de aprendizaje, numerosas ilustraciones, mas de 750 en esta ocasion, perspectivas globales y resumenes de los capitulos para animar a los estudiantes al estudio y facilitar el aprendizaje. Las preguntas al final de cada capitulo incluyen ejercicios de definicion, preguntas de respuestas cortas y calculos. A pesar de que la ciencia radiologica no puede separarse de las matematicas, este manual no asume que los lectores tengan una base matematica y todas las ecuaciones van seguidas de problemas de ejemplo con una aplicacion clinica directa para una mas facil comprension. Esta nueva edicion ha sido totalmente renovada e incluye numerosas actualizaciones en las areas de tecnicas de imagen especiales, donde se han producido los mayores avances en tecnologia radiologica. Existe una nueva seccion sobre tomografia computarizada espiral con multiples cortes, presenta innovaciones como la radiografia digital y las caracteristicas de las tecnicas asociadas al empleo de silicio amorfo y selenio amorfo. Incluye tambien una nueva discusion sobre dispositivos acoplados por carga y las ventajas para los procedimientos intervencionistas, asi como los avances en composicion de dianas, compresion e imagen digital para la mamografia. La octava edicion tambien incluye mas definiciones en el texto y referencias del capitulo. Todos los terminos en negrita se definen la primera vez que aparecen y se recogen en un glosario, lo que resulta de gran ayuda para los estudiantes.
