The main purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive, yet accessible, graphical guide with many examples to the principles and practices of X-ray imaging.
X-ray imaging is a vast and complex subject, encompassing the entire process, from the physics of X-ray production to the latest advances in digital image processing. This book is structured to guide readers through this broad field in a logical and progressive manner.
The book also covers important physical principles, including the interaction of radiation with biological material and factors that affect image quality, such as attenuation and differential absorption.
