X-rays, computed tomography & Co. by Gustav K von Schulthess
Professor Röntgen, can you help me?
This book illustrates in a clearly understandable way how doctors today can obtain images of the inside of the body: with X-rays, radio waves in magnetic resonance imaging, sound waves in ultrasound and radioactively labeled substances in nuclear medicine.
Modern imaging today allows us to depict completely new realities and, thanks to modern physics, to look inside people in a completely different way than with our eyes. This enables us to depict tissue of different densities in humans, to visualize the magnetic properties of different organs and to map sugar metabolism or brain changes in Alzheimer's disease.
In addition to the clear presentation of basic physical relationships, it is also explained which procedure is best used for the most common diseases at which time.The text is structured in such a way that it is possible to enter each chapter directly without having to read the other chapters.
What happens to me in the tube during magnetic resonance imaging?
Should I be afraid of X-rays?
What is the structure of atoms and how is this understanding of physics used to generate an image of the inside of the body?
Professor Dr. Gustav von Schulthess answers these and other questions in an inimitably vivid way.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
