Text of Note

"This easy-to-understand, handy portable format of Clark's Essential Physics in Imaging for Radiographers is an invaluable tool for students, assistant practitioners and radiographers. It provides an accessible guide to the subject in an easy-to-read style, with diagrams and photographs to support the text. Each chapter has clear learning objectives and a series of MCQs to test these learning outcomes.The book opens with chapters giving an overview of image production, basic mathematics and physics relevant to medical imaging, followed by detailed chapters on physics relevant to producing diagnostic images using X-rays. It is essential that any practitioner working in an imaging department and using ionizing radiation has a sound knowledge base. This book supports students in demonstrating an understanding of the fundamental definitions of physics applied to radiography--all they need to know to pass their exams"--Provided by publisher.
