The Physics of Radiology & Imaging, 2/E for MD/DNB/FRCR Radiology and MSc Medical Physics Students | Covers X-rays, Ultrasound, CT, MRI, Mammography, PET-CT and Radiation Safety: 1

The Physics of Radiology & Imaging, 2nd Edition is a comprehensive 15-chapter physics reference addressing the role of ionizing and nonionizing radiation in medical image formation. It fulfils the postgraduate physics teaching requirement in radiology and describes, equipment by equipment, the physics and principles behind radiography, CT, ultrasound, MRI, nuclear imaging, gamma camera, PET-CT, and PET-MRI. This edition incorporates recent developments including breast tomosynthesis, contrast-enhanced mammography, harmonic imaging, elastography, and MR imaging sequence topics, alongside 275 figures and 49 tables with citations and worked numerical examples. Coverage spans fundamental physics and radioactivity through X-ray production, radiation interaction and dosimetry, screen-film and digital radiography, mammography, fluoroscopy, and computed tomography, closing with essentials of image quality, quality assurance, bioeffects, and radiological safety. Who This Book Is For: MD/DNB/FRCR Radiology Postgraduates: fulfils the postgraduate physics teaching requirement across Indian medical universities. MSc Medical Physics and PG Diploma in Radiation Physics Students: a complete syllabus-aligned reference for radiation physics coursework. BSc/MSc Radiography and Imaging Technology Students: covers the full RIT syllabus, equipment-by-equipment, with worked examples. AICTE Biomedical Engineering Students: suitable for the biomedical-engineering treatment of medical imaging physics. Why This Book Helps: Covers every major imaging modality's physics in one volume: radiography, CT, ultrasound, MRI, nuclear imaging, PET-CT, and PET-MRI are each addressed equipment-by-equipment. Backs concepts with worked numerical examples: 275 figures and 49 tables with citations support quantitative problem-solving, not just theory. Stays current with recent imaging advances: breast tomosynthesis, contrast-enhanced mammography, harmonic imaging, and elastography are incorporated. Builds safety and QA competence: dedicated coverage of image quality, quality assurance, bioeffects, and radiological safety. Key Features: 15 chapters, 275 figures, and 49 tables with citations and worked examples Equipment-specific chapters on Computed Radiography/Digital Radiography, Mammography (incl. digital breast tomosynthesis, BI-RADS), Fluoroscopy Imaging, and Computed Tomography (incl. multi-slice helical CT) Dedicated Radiation Detection and Measurements chapter covering gas-filled and solid-state detectors, biological and clinical dosimeters Recent-advances coverage: breast tomosynthesis, contrast-enhanced digital mammography, harmonic imaging, elastography, and MR imaging sequences Authored by Kuppusamy Thayalan, Consultant Medical Physicist with 42 years of clinical medical physics experience and 13 authored books
