The Physics of CT Dosimetry

CTDI and Beyond

Buch

This book explores the physics of CT dosimetry and provides practical guidance on best practice for medical researchers and practitioners. A rigorous description of the basic physics of CT dosimetry is presented and illustrates flaws of the current methodology. It will also contain helpful (and rigorous) shortcuts to reduce the measurement workload for medical physicists--
