The book has two intentions. First, it assembles the latest
research in the field of medical imaging technology in one place.
Detailed descriptions of current state-of-the-art medical imaging
systems (comprised of x-ray CT, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear
medicine) and data processing techniques are discussed. Information
is provided that will give interested engineers and scientists a
solid foundation from which to build with additional resources.
Secondly, it exposes the reader to myriad applications that medical
imaging technology has enabled.

Both the demographics and lack of resources in the health and
well-being industry are increasingly forcing us to find alternative
solutions for individualized health and social care. In an effort
to address this issue, smart technologies present enormous
potential in solving this challenge. This book strives to enhance
communication and collaboration between technology and health and
social care sectors. The reader will receive an extensive overview
of the possibilities of various technologies in care sectors
(including ICT, electronics, automation, and sensor technology)
written by experts from various countries. It will prove extremely
useful for engineers developing well-being related systems,
software, or other devices that can be used by professionals
working with people with specialist needs, well-being and health
service providers, educators teaching related courses, and upper
level undergraduate students and graduate student studying related
topics. The technology focus of the book is widespread and
addresses elderly care and hospitals, in addition to solutions for
various user groups, devices, and technologies. Beyond serving as a
resource for nurses and people working in care sector, the book is
also meant to give guidelines for engineers developing
person-centered systems by exploring the integration of these
technologies into service systems.
This book offers readers an overview of some of the most recent
advances in the field of technology for X-ray medical imaging.
Coverage includes both technology and applications in SPECT, PET
and CT, with an in-depth review of the research topics from leading
specialists in the field. Coverage includes conversion of the X-ray
signal into analogue/digital value, as well as a review of CMOS
chips for X-ray image sensors. Emphasis is on high-Z
materials like CdTe, CZT and GaAs, since they offer the best
implementation possibilities for direct conversion X-ray
detectors. The discussion includes material challenges,
detector operation physics and technology and readout integrated
circuits required to detect signals processes by high-Z
sensors. Authors contrast these emerging technologies with
more established ones based on scintillator materials. This book is
an excellent reference for people already working in the field as
well as for people wishing to enter it.
