内容説明

The Physics in Medicine & Biology Encyclopedia provides in two volumes a comprehensive and authoritative review of a wide range of topics of current interest in medical physics, bioengineering and biophysics. The 240 carefully researched articles are designed to meet the needs of hospital physicists, bioengineers and medical technologists who require a reliable, up-to-date source to consult in this rapidly growing field. Full descriptions of the basic principles underlying the application of physics to medicine and biology also make the Encyclopedia an attractive reference tool for the newcomer or student keen to gain an understanding of the area. The Encyclopedia is extensively cross-referenced, carefully indexed and illustrated, and all articles are complete with fully verified bibliographies. A glossary gives full details of specialized terms appearing in the Encyclopedia.
