CUDA is now the dominant language used for programming GPUs, one of
the most exciting hardware developments of recent decades. With
CUDA, you can use a desktop PC for work that would have previously
required a large cluster of PCs or access to a HPC facility. As a
result, CUDA is increasingly important in scientific and technical
computing across the whole STEM community, from medical physics and
financial modelling to big data applications and beyond. This
unique book on CUDA draws on the author's passion for and long
experience of developing and using computers to acquire and analyse
scientific data. The result is an innovative text featuring a much
richer set of examples than found in any other comparable book on
GPU computing. Much attention has been paid to the C++ coding
style, which is compact, elegant and efficient. A code base of
examples and supporting material is available online, which readers
can build on for their own projects.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a very important clinical imaging
tool. It combines different fields of physics and engineering in a
uniquely complex way. MRI is also surprisingly versatile, 'pulse
sequences' can be designed to yield many different types of
contrast. This versatility is unique to MRI. This short book gives
both an in depth account of the methods used for the operation and
construction of modern MRI systems and also the principles of
sequence design and many examples of applications. An important
additional feature of this book is the detailed discussion of the
mathematical principles used in building optimal MRI systems and
for sequence design. The mathematical discussion is very suitable
for undergraduates attending medical physics courses. It is also
more complete than usually found in alternative books for physical
scientists or more clinically orientated works.
