Graham's Principles and Applications of Radiological Physics - Vicki Major, Andrew, BSc , PgCert, MSc, PhD, FHEA (Senior Lecturer in Radiography, Dir

This must-have text provides an insight into the science behind radiographic technology. Suitable for radiography and radiology students at all levels, the text uses illustrations and simple analogies to explain the fundamentals, while retaining more complex concepts for those with a more advanced knowledge of radiological physics. Updated by authors Martin Vosper, Andrew England and Victoria Major to reflect advances and key topics in medical imaging practice, this text will support radiographers in their core role of obtaining high quality images and optimal treatment outcomes. Strong links between theory and practice throughout, with updated clinical scenariosClear and concise text featuring insight boxes and summary pointsMore than 60 new diagramsLogically organised to match the order of delivery used in current teaching programmesUpdated to reflect advances in medical imaging practice and changes to teaching curriculaNew information on X-ray exposure factors and their effect on the radiographic image; non-ionising radiation safety - MRI, ultrasound; mobile, portable and dental systems; multimodality imaging, registration and fusion; and the science of body tissue depiction; and PACS technologyEnhanced focus on diagnostic imagingEvolve resources to support learning and teaching
