Due to the increasing number of digital mammograms and the advent of brand-new type of three-dimensional x-ray and other types of medical imaging, mammography is undergoing a remarkable change. To fulfill their duties, medical physicists must constantly restore their understanding of advances in medical imaging or radiation therapy, and need to be prepared to operate at the intersection of these two fields. Physics of Mammographic Imaging provides a summary on the current role and future capacity of new options to mammography in the context of clinical need, complementary approaches, and continuous research study. This book provides detailed coverage on the principles of image development, image analysis, analysis, and modeling. It discusses making use of mammographic imaging in the detection, medical diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of breast cancer. Professional authors give a well balanced summary of core subjects such as digital mammography, contrast-enhanced mammography, stereomammography, breast tomosynthesis, and breast CT. The book highlights using mammographic imaging with complementary breast imaging techniques such as ultrasound, MRI, and nuclear medicine techniques. It discusses important issues such as computer-aided diagnosis, perception, and quality control. This is an amazing time in the development of medical imaging, with numerous new innovations poised to make a considerable impact on breast cancer care. This book will assist researchers and trainees get up to speed on important developments and add to future advances in the field.
