This is the second of two volumes on the subject of computed tomography.
The use of computed tomography has increased greatly over the last twenty years or so, due at least in part to its diagnostic power and non-invasive nature. Nonetheless, there are still improvements to be made in terms of imaging speed, dose reduction and contrast improvement to improve safety, reduce costs and increase the range of applications for this technique.
These books discuss a number of recent clinical applications for computed tomography, including surgical planning, therapy guidance, neuroimaging and the study of bone metastasis, osteogenesis and lung and liver tissue. A couple of chapters will focus on non-clinical applications, namely the use of CT scanning in archaeology and forensic identification.
As well as discussing specific applications, the books will also focus on more general/theoretical advances such as phase contrast CT, hybrid PET/CT and SPECT/CT techniques and the development of methods for semi-automation and computer-aided analysis. A further section will be devoted to improvements made in standards of care in CT and other imaging techniques.
These books are essential reading for all clinicians and diagnosticians who wish to gain a greater insight into the use of CT as a technique, and learn more about the current thinking and latest developments in the field.
