The authors have retained the pragmatic approach of earlier
editions and continue to target the book particularly at those
students who find physics a difficult subject to grasp. The fourth
edition builds on the major revisions introduced in the third
edition. The content has been updated to reflect recent advances in
imaging technology. The chapter on Radiation Safety has been
completely rewritten in the light of the latest changes in relevant
legislation, and a re-examination of the physical principles
underpinning magnetic resonance imaging forms the basis of a new
chapter. Worked examples and calculations again feature strongly,
and the innovative and popular Maths Help File, guides
readers gently through the mathematical steps and concepts
involved. The reference citations have been updated and now include
Internet sources.
