| This volume provides a thorough working knowledge of the principles and techniques of functional imaging. The book equips radiologists with the necessary background to fully understand the diagnostic capabilities of functional imaging and incorporate these techniques into clinical practice. Coverage encompasses all functional imaging modalities currently available, including magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy, positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed tomography, Doppler ultrasound, electroencephalography, and magnetoencephalography.The first part of the book explains key concepts common to all functional imaging modalities, such as basic principles of image formation, use of contrast agents and radiopharmaceuticals, principles of quantitative function analysis and physiological modeling, and digital image processing for functional analysis. Subsequent chapters focus on the use of various imaging technologies for evaluation of physiological function--gamma rays (nuclear medicine), X-rays, optical methods, radio waves (magnetic resonance), electroencephalography, magnetoencephalography, and sound waves. More than 300 illustrations complement the text. |
