MEDICAL IMAGING SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY
A 5-Volume Set
(1) Analysis and Computational Methods
(2) Modalities
(3) Methods in General Anatomy
(4) Methods in Diagnosis Optimization
(5) Methods in Cardiovascular and Brain Systems


edited by Cornelius T Leondes (University of California, Los Angeles, USA)

This scholarly set of well-harmonized volumes provides indispensable and complete coverage of the exciting and evolving subject of medical imaging systems. Leading experts on the international scene tackle the latest cutting-edge techniques and technologies in an in-depth but eminently clear and readable approach.

Complementing and intersecting one another, each volume offers a comprehensive treatment of substantive importance to the subject areas. The chapters, in turn, address topics in a self-contained manner with authoritative introductions, useful summaries, and detailed reference lists. Extensively well-illustrated with figures throughout, the five volumes as a whole achieve a unique depth and breath of coverage.

As a cohesive whole or independent of one another, the volumes may be acquired as a set or individually.
