"...fulfills the authors goal of providing an up-to-datesurvey of the physics of medical imaging in a format that willappeal to students and educators alike. The coverage oftopics is sufficiently comprehensive, making it a suitableintroductory text for a number of imaging-oriented courses."(Radiology, January 2004) "The authors...are...experts...but also seasonedteachers...this is evidenced by the clarity of thought andcompleteness with which they treat each topic in thiscomprehensive, easily readable textbook." (IEEE Engineering inMedicine and Biology, May/ June 2003) "...provides clear descriptions of difficult concepts whilekeeping mathematics to a minimum. The examples and problems forstudents are thought provoking and help solidify an understandingof the material." (Doody's) "...an excellent introduction to the physics of medicalimaging...Medical Imaging Physics is sure to be a favoriteof residents, perhaps supplanting Christensen'sIntroduction to the Physics of Diagnostic Radiology as theclassic radiology residency physics text." (American Journal ofRoentgenology, Vol. 180, No. 4, April 2003)"I would highly recommend this book as the primary reference for radiological physicists attempting to expand their understanding of medical imaging and those individuals preparing for certification in diagnostic radiology" "the book is a treasure of material [and] an indispensable source" --Edward L. Nickoloff, D.Sc., Department of Radiology, Columbia University and New York-Presbyterian Hospital
