Digital Imaging Systems for Plain Radiography

Advances in digital technology led to the development of digital x-ray detectors that are currently in wide use for projection radiography, including Computed Radiography (CR) and Digital Radiography (DR). Digital Imaging Systems for Plain Radiography addresses the current technological methods available to medical imaging professionals to ensure the optimization of the radiological process concerning image quality and reduction of patient exposure. Based on extensive research by the authors and reference to the current literature, the book addresses how exposure parameters influence the diagnostic quality in digital systems, what the current acceptable radiation doses are for useful diagnostic images, and at what level the dose could be reduced to maintain an accurate diagnosis. The book is a valuable resource for both students learning the field and for imaging professionals to apply to their own practice while performing radiological examinations with digital systems.

Abstract Plain radiography still accounts for the vast majority of imaging studies
that are performed at multiple clinical instances. Digital detectors are now
prominent in many imaging facilities and they are the main driving force towards
filmless ...

Fundamentals of Digital Imaging in Medicine

In general, image processing texts are intended for students of engineering and computer science, and there is little written at all on the specific requirements of medical image processing. Students of medical radiation science (Diagnostic radiography, Nuclear medicine, Radiation therapy) usually have minimal mathematical and computer science training and find the available texts incomprehensible. A text that explains the principles of image processing in minimally-mathematical language is needed for these students. Contrary to the claims of some textbook authors, the vast majority of technologists that process images do not need to understand the mathematics involved, but would nevertheless benefit from a thorough understanding of the general process.

We can single out medical imaging for special consideration because the lives of
people often depend on correct acquisition, processing, and interpretation of
medical images. It is important that individuals responsible for acquiring and ...

Emotional and Interpersonal Dimensions of Health Services

Enriching the Art of Care with the Science of Care

While technological and biomedical breakthroughs have provided a remarkable array of tests, equipment, drugs, and procedures for diagnosing and treating acute diseases, modern medicine and professional health practices have not taken the same strides in the more human aspects of care. Emotional and Interpersonal Dimensions of Health Services considers ways modern health care practices could benefit from paying more attention to the "science of care." Contributors examine the degree to which the provision of health care is influenced by characteristics of the health service organization, such as the administrative structure and the human resources available. They demonstrate that job satisfaction and conditions play an important role in shaping the quality and effectiveness of care and discuss the emotional support health care providers need to avoid long-term exhaustion and ensure well being. The contributors identify qualities of the client-provider interaction that lead to positive health care outcomes, such as providing information, responding to patient concerns, facilitating interactions with the health care system, and encouraging participation in personal health care and offer examples of innovative conceptual and analytical approaches to better health care practices. Contributors include Heather Boon (University of Toronto), Laurette Dubé, Carole A. Estabrooks (University of Alberta), Guylaine Ferland, Arlie Russell Hochschild (University of California, Berkley), Diane M. Irvine Doran (University of Toronto), Terrence Montague (Merck Frosst Canada), D.S. Moskowitz, Richard W.J. Neufeld (University of Western Ontario), Gilbert Pinard (McGill University), Debra L.

False Hope: Bone Marrow Transplantation for Breast Cancer

In the late 1980s, a promising new treatment for breast cancer emerged: high-dose chemotherapy with autologous bone marrow transplantation or HDC/ABMT. By the 1990s, it had burst upon the oncology scene and disseminated rapidly before having been carefully evaluated. By the time published studies showed that the procedure was ineffective, more than 30,000 women had received the treatment, shortening their lives and adding to their suffering. This book tells of the rise and demise of HDC/ABMT for metastatic and early stage breast cancer, and fully explores the storys implications, which go well beyond the immediate procedure, and beyond breast cancer, to how we in the United States evaluate other medical procedures, especially life-saving ones. It details how the factors that drove clinical use--patient demand, physician enthusiasm, media reporting, litigation, economic exploitation, and legislative and administrative mandates--converged to propel the procedure forward despite a lack of proven clinical effectiveness. It also analyzes the limited effect of technology assessments before randomized clinical trials evaluated decisively the procedure and the ramifications of this system on healthcare today. Sections of the book consider the initial conditions surrounding the emergence of the new breast cancer treatment, the drivers of clinical use, and the struggle for evidence-based medicine. A concluding section considers the significance of the story for our healthcare system.

Clinical anatomy at its best!" - Dr Ludmilla Stane, Institute for Anatomy, Dusseldorf. The publication of this new textbook in 2005 represented a major advance in the integration of anatomy teaching with the study of clinical medicine. This new edition builds on this well-received approach, bringing the content entirely up to date with increased emphasis on the conditions most commonly encountered by medical students and junior clinicians in training. Structured by body region, each chapter includes plentiful clinical photographs and images supplementing the high-quality anatomical diagrams, using the best modality to demonstrate anatomical relevance. Highlighted descriptions of clinical relevance emphasise the integrated approach so central to current teaching practice, and facilitated by the wealth of both clinical and anatomical experience of the distinguished author team.
