Medical Infrared Imaging – Principles and Practices

Mary Diakides, Joseph D. Bronzino, Donald R. Peterson

The evolution of technological advances in infrared sensor technology, image processing, “smart” algorithms, knowledge-based databases, and their overall system integration has resulted in new methods of research and use in medical infrared imaging. The development of infrared cameras with focal plane arrays no longer requiring cooling, added a new dimension to this modality. Medical Infrared Imaging: Principles and Practices covers new ideas, concepts, and technologies.

Medical Infrared Imaging

Nicholas Diakides D.Sc. /Joseph Bronzino Ph.D., P.E.

Rapid evolution of technical advances in infrared sensor technology, image processing, “smart” algorithms, databases, and system integration paves the way for new methods of research and use in medical infrared imaging. These breakthroughs permit easy-to-use, high-sensitivity imaging that can address key issues of diagnostic specificity and engender a new level of diagnostic standardization, thus enabling the even wider use of infrared imaging as a viable, non-invasive, lower-cost, safe and accessible first-line detection modality.

Avoiding Breast Cancer

Joseph McWherter MD

Dr. McWherter reveals the steps that you can take to help avoid breast cancer, and how bio-identical hormone replacement can be used without increasing cancer risks. Explains how a special type of estrogen manufactured in the breast can kill breast cancer cells. Covers how iodine plays a major role in breast health; how detoxification rejuvenates the mind and body while protecting the breast; how thermography can be used in detecting precancerous changes long before they appear on mammograms.

Building Your Private Practice

Lynn Grodzki

Building Your Ideal Private Practice, a best-seller in its genre, is now fully revised after its original publication in 2000. Much has changed for therapists in private practice over the past fifteen years, including the widespread encroachment by insurance and managed care into the marketplace, the density of new therapists as over 600,000 therapists nation-wide try to stay viable, and the role of the Internet in marketing services. The revision of Building Your Ideal Private Practice is a comprehensive guide, updated with six new chapters and targeted for therapists at all stages of private practice development. It covers the essential how-to questions for those starting out in practice and explains the common pitfalls to avoid.

Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasonics and Thermography

Sol Nudelman, D. D. Patton

The material in this volume was prepared and collected over the past four years with the growing realization that a technical revolution was in progress for diagnostic medicine. It became clear that for the wide variety of imaging instruments and methods finding their way into applications for research and clinical medicine, there was a scarcity of reference and text books for the scientist and engineer beginning in the field. Thus what began as a relatively small project for a single volume has grown into certainly two and probably three volumes to adequately cover the field.
