Biomedical Physics Thomas Jackson

The theories and applications of various concepts in physics are widely used in contemporary healthcare and medical studies across the world. Biomedical physics as a specialized field is aimed at perceiving the underlying principles and concepts of physics in bio-molecular structure, nano-medicine, nuclear medicine, etc. It plays a key role in understanding techniques and principles used in molecular imaging (cells and tissues) as well as medical imaging (pathology and anatomy through CT, MRI, etc.). This book elucidates the significant issues and studies performed by renowned experts and practitioners from various countries. It also elucidates diverse applications of theories from physics in analyzing biological systems and their interactions, cancer and oncology, neuroscience and brain imaging, computational research and imaging, etc. This text is a very useful reference tool for postgraduate students, medical practitioners, scientists, etc. who are looking for an updated and comprehensive resource guide on biomedical physics.
