(Medical Sciences Series)

By B.H Brown, R.H Smallwood, D.C. Barber, P.V Lawford, D.R Hose





24606.imgcache.jpg






  • Number Of Pages: 736




    Publication Date: 1999-06-15
  • Binding: Hardcover
Product Description







A self-contained text, Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering provides a strong foundation for physics and engineering students who are just approaching medical physics and biomedical engineering. Those actively engaged medical physicists and biomedical engineers, as well as clinicians interested in the technological aspects of medicine also will find much of interest in its breadth of coverage. The first part of the book presents the underlying physics, electronics, anatomy, and physiology, and the second addresses practical applications. Where necessary, references to the mathematical background are provided and detailed derivations are kept to a minimum.

The Physics of Modern Brachytherapy
for Oncology

(Medical Physics & Biomedical Engineering)

By Dimos Baltas, Loukas Sakelliou, Nikolaos Zamboglou


24609.imgcache.jpg


  • Number Of Pages: 647
  • Publication Date: 2006-09-28
  • Binding: Hardcover
Product Description


Brachytherapy has become the modality of choice for several cancer localizations, minimizing the possibility of unacceptable risks for healthy tissues and providing a more cost-effective and convenient treatment for patients. Written by leading experts in the physics, development, and implementation of brachytherapy, The Physics of Modern Brachytherapy for Oncology discusses the subject in detail, covering its definition, the basic physics of radiation interaction with matter, radionuclides, sources and source production, calibration and dosimetry protocols as well as experimental dosimetry methods appropriate for practical use. Logically organized, the book begins with basic information, including quantities and units, followed by fundamental atomic and nuclear physics. It also provides the historical background of brachytherapy physics. The next several chapters discuss the radionuclides used in brachytherapy, reflecting upon past (radium), present (iridium or cobalt), and future (ytterbium) methods. The book proceeds to examine source calibration and dosimetry protocols for dose rate calculation while the final chapters explore more recent processes, including Monte Carlo-aided, experimental, and gel dosimetry. The appendices provide useful tables of isotopes, unit conversions and physical constants, brachytherapy sources, TG-43 and TG-43 U1 data tables, and dose rate tables. Detailing the physics behind brachytherapy treatment, The Physics of Modern Brachytherapy for Oncology is essential reading for researchers, practicing radiation oncologists, and medical physicists who want to keep abreast of the developments in this changing field as well as for postgraduate students in medical physics.

Minimally Invasive Medical Technology

(Series in Medical Physics)


By John G. Webster




24611.imgcache.jpg

  • Number Of Pages: 316
  • Publication Date: 2001-02-01
  • Binding: Hardcover
Product Description


Minimally invasive medicine has the goal of providing health care with minimal trauma. When minimally invasive surgery is utilized, it reduces the length of hospital stays, lowers costs, lowers pain, and reduces blood loss. Other minimally invasive techniques minimize radiation exposure, tissue damage, and drug side effects. Collecting contributions from workers in various fields within the sphere of minimally invasive medical technology, this book provides essential information for those involved with researching, designing, and using minimally invasive devices and systems. It emphasizes the technology required to accomplish minimally invasive medicine. The book will be of interest to biomedical engineers, medical physicists, and health care providers who want to know the technical workings of their devices and instruments.

Decommissioning Health Physics

A Handbook for MARSSIM Users

(Medical physics series)

By Eric.W. Abelquist




24612.imgcache.jpg

  • Number Of Pages: 350
  • Publication Date: 2002-01-01
  • Binding: Hardcover
Product Description



Decommissioning Health Physics presents many of the technical issues and challenges that arise during the planning and implementation of decommissioning and decontamination (D&D) projects. The focus is on the final status survey performed during the later stages of decommissioning projects. It expands upon and provides greater technical detail than Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Site Investigation Manual (MARSSIM) in areas of survey design strategies. Featuring a number of completely worked examples of final status survey strategies, the book prepares the reader for the real-world application of MARSSIM at D&D projects. One chapter is devoted to the specific decommissioning concerns relevant to specific facility types, power reactors, uranium and thorium facilities and sites, and universities or other research facilities. The book thoroughly discusses practical applications of statistics in the context of decommissioning projects, from elementary statistics to hypothesis testing for a number of applications including data comparisons between the regulator and licensee, normality testing of the data, and survey unit compliance decisions. Decommissioning Health Physics will be beneficial for the planners, designers, and reporters of final status survey results as well as health physics technicians who will benefit from practical chapters on instrumentation and survey procedures.
