3-0 out of 5 stars Good for Computed Tomography
Well, I'm using this book as a reference text for the graduate medical imaging systems course. It's relatively an out of date book, but it covers the most important aspects of Computed Tomography. If you're used to "easy to read" books which are published a lot these days, you'll find the language of this book a little complicated with relatively strange notations. But once you get used to it, you'll definitly enjoy your reading.
At any rate, if you're ready for some math and advanced calculus and you want to learn about the basics of CT, it worths trying.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good overview of imaging techniques
This book gives a clear, usable overview of many imaging techniques currently in use for medical imaging.It is not for laymen, as it delves into the mathematical basis for the techniques.However, for an engineer there is a satisying amount of detail with a concise overview.

Product Description

Biomedical image analysis has become a major aspect of engineering sciences, and radiology in particular has become a dominant player in the field. Recent developments have made it possible to use biomedical imaging to view the human body from an anatomical or physiological perspective in a non-invasive fashion. Computer-aided diagnosis consists of developing algorithms and intelligent software components that can automatically process images and spot potential irregularities in the health chain.

The aim of this book is to explain the process of biomedical imaging, from image acquisition to automated diagnosis. This process consists of three thematic areas. The first is dedicated to the acquisition process and the underlying properties of images from a physics-oriented perspective. The second part addresses the dominant state-of-the-art methodologies behind content extraction and interpretation of medical images. The third section presents an application-based example, which develops solutions to address the particular needs of various diagnoses.

This complete volume is an exceptional tool for radiologists, research scientists, senior undergraduate and graduate students in health sciences and engineering, and university professors. This book offers a unique guide to the entire chain of biomedical imaging, explaining how image formation is done, and how the most appropriate algorithms are used to address demands and diagnoses.

Product Description
This textbook deals with the analysis and design of imaging systems and image processing systems. It contains the background material necessary for understanding both the physics of such systems and the way in which the designs accommodate the visual perception of the observer. The mathematics of converting optical images to electrical signals and vice versa is emphasized and stress is laid on the point that the quality of such conversions can only be judged subjectively. The material is accessible to senior undergraduates and first year graduate students. A knowledge of elementary physics, calculus, and linear systems theory is assumed, but an extensive mathematical and statistical background is not required. This second edition has been updated and includes two new chapters, on colour and the design of improved television systems, and there is also an appendix describing the current status of high-definition television throughout the world. ...

Product Description

Not all amateur astronomers who live in a suburban location realize just how very effective a ‘chilled-chip’ astronomical CCD-camera and software can be at cutting through seemingly impenetrable light-pollution. CCD Astrophotography from the Suburbs details one man’s approach to the problem of getting high-quality astronomical images under light-polluted conditions. Adam Stuart has written this reference book for all amateur astronomers who are interested in CCD imaging, especially those who have to work under suburban conditions. The book outlines the materials and (commercially-available) equipment used for high-quality imaging. The many wonderful images Dr. Stuart has produced allow the reader to see the product of – initially – a fellow beginner’s efforts. The glorious images found in numerous books, and especially those seen in Sky and Telescope magazine – might seem out of reach. But this is not really the case. Respectable images are attainable with modest equipment. This book outlines a complete and thoroughly tested working program for every beginner to achieve high-quality digital imaging.

3-0 out of 5 stars Interesting guide for beginners
This book is giving a great picture of all aspects for CCD Astrophotography. It is a very good guide for Begineers!

1-0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money
This book is basically broken down into two parts.The first 80 pages are all about the author's equipment and setup.The second 80 pages are images he took. The first part may be useful if you have the exact same equipment but, if not, you won't get anything out of it.His images range from mediocre to great, but there is no information on how he captured or processed them.In short, this is just a great big pat on the back by the author for the author.Don't waste your money, you'll get nothing for it.

1-0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this book
What a disappointment... this book was not useful to me for any purpose other than to read about the equipment & software used by the author.It's nothing more than a chronology and documentary on the equipment HE owns and uses, but there is absolutely no information on HOW to use it.I was expecting and/or hoping for "reference" type information, but the book is essentially useless for this purpose.The author will tell you everything you want to know about HIS equipment and setup (in a manner that goes over the head of nearly all beginners) but does absolutely nothing to educate you on how to effectively take "high quality astrophotography from the suburbs".Even worse, half of the book contains nothing more than photos that he took, but there is no information on technique.If you want a "guided tour" of the author's setup, then you'll love the book, but if you want to know anything at all about how to use it, or even better... how to use your own or other equipment, absolutely positively 100% stay away from this book.I think the book is a scam-- to get you to buy and use equipment owned by the author.I wonder if the different equipment manufacturers and vendors pay the guy to name-drop and "advertise" in his book.What a disappointment.

3-0 out of 5 stars Getting Better
At first I did not like the book much and it sat on my shelve. I revisited it recently and have changed my mind. There is a lot of information contained within its pages. It may not be the best laid out book for beginners and the Observatory section needs to be dropped, never the less if you read through it you can learn a lot. It is with out doubt an improvement on some of the astrophotography books in the Practical Astronomy series, some of which should never have been printed but there is still room for a good intro book in this area.

3-0 out of 5 stars I am a little bit disappointed
I could hardly wait for this book because I live next to a more than 2 million-city (Budapest) in Hungary and half of the night sky is terrible from my backyard; so the main reason behind my ordering this book was its subtitle.

But the truth is that only the very first section (seven pages incl. pictures and PC screenshots) of this book deals with this problem and that is just a kind of approach from bird's eye view; the rest of the text is a "normal" and elementary level astro-photo book. (And I have much better astro photography and image processing sources as Wodarski or Berry&Burnell...)

At the same time, there are too many pictures (roughly 1/3 of the book!!!) as sample image collection. Some of them are really very nice shots and some others are poor but without any explanations regarding the features of their capture and/or image processing.

So this book is not bad at all but I can recommend it for beginners only as another overview about new technology of astro-photography and there is nothing special in it. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars This is a very brief/abstract book about JPEG2000
If you are the newbie to JPEG2000 --> stay away from this book. If you are in mediate and up level in JPEG2000 --> you don't need this book. So let me give you some reasons here
1) The book's chapter 1 mention about the core coding system of JPEG2000 (which is the most important part) in very very brief way. I got this book after I got a decent knowledge about J2K from Taubman's book and Acharya's book but when I read this book Iam totally disappointed. If you have not know anything about JPEG 2000 then you will not know what do they talk about in the chapter 1 since they just introduce the concepts very briefly. If you already know about JPEG 2000 then the information you got in chapter 1 is useless. I think the editor board of the book made a wrong decision when they just briefly talk about the code coding engine of J2K. Since there are lots of complicated core concepts in J2K, without knowing them you cannot go forward to more advanced and extension parts.

2) From chapter 2 to 18 ( 18 chapters! man) they mainly discuss about different extension parts of J2K which you don't need if you are trying to know the core coding engine. Any similar to chapter 1, all of the remained chapters were written very briefly. I guess you need to look at much more material to have enough knowledge to actually implement something. The book just about very brief concepts, no more or less. You cannot rely on the book to obtain enough information for practical implementation.

3) Over all I think they made a wrong decision when they try to cover to much stuffs in the book so that it become a half-baked book!

So my suggestion is if you want to know about J2K you may want to spend your time (hardly) with Taubman's book JPEG2000: Image Compression Fundamentals, Standards and Practice (The International Series in Engineering and Computer Science) and Acharya's book JPEG2000 Standard for Image Compression: Concepts, Algorithms and VLSI Architectures or go google for tutorials, presentations about J2K from academic research groups. Stay away from this book. Taubman, I guess, may be a mathematician :D wrote a very deep-inside book about J2K but the bad thing is he introduced everything too formally with tons of mathematic equation and notation which will cause your mind to be crashed :D. But if you combine his book with "more-abstract" book from Acharya, you may get some clues :). According to me, Taubman's book is most detail book about J2K upto now but also it is the most hark-to-read and complicated book :).

Another suggestion is you should combine reading the book and look @ the code from OpenJPEG open source J2K project or Kakadu project... to know better the concepts. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
This book is an up to date, introductory treatment of geometrical optics, from the point of view of the future optics practitioner. The principles of gaussian optics and first-order layout and design are emphasized, based on the tracing of two paraxial rays and the associated optical invariant. The radiometry of lens systems is seen to rest on the same concepts. Third order aberration theory is developed in detail. Complete examples of third order design are provided, together with software tools that allow the reader to follow the examples in detail, or to develop other examples independently. Throughout the book, the understanding of fundamental principles is given preference over the mere following of recipes. Several problems at the end of each chapter allow the student to practice and extend the concepts taught. In addition to Gaussian optics and aberrations, the basic principles of several types of optical instruments and components are treated, including gradient index and diffractive optics. A complete yet simple treatment of gaussian beams is included, that is also based on two paraxial rays and the optical invariant. The book concludes with an outline of the optical design process and solved design problems. ... Read more

Product Description
Prospecting for oil begins with seismic soundings. The echoes are computer processed into images that reveal much about the earth's geological history. "Imaging the Earth's Interior" describes the image-making process. Professor Claerbout was the first to use the wave equation of physics directly in the image-making process, and his finite difference implementation quickly became an industry standard. His graduate research group at Stanford University has been at the forefront of subsequent developments, many of which are described in this book. It is intended for students entering earth sciences from other areas, earth science professionals, and professionals in other fields in which waves and images are studied. It will also be useful to data recording engineers and to geologists who need to understand the opportunities and limitations of image creation and enhancement processes. The book strikes a balance between current industry practice and unrealized research goals. ... Read more

"Hills is probably the best person I can think of to write this book. He has the deepest background combined with considerable experience in solving problems with food." -R. G. Bryant, University of Virginia.

Food scientists have many excellent tools at their disposal with which to study food at both the micro- and macrostructural levels. But, when it comes to analyzing dynamic structural changes in food during processing and storage, none can compare with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Still a very young approach, MRI food imaging has contributed greatly to recent advances in food science, and promises to yield much more valuable information in the years ahead. Written by a leading pioneer in the field, Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Food Science covers the latest in MRI food imaging theory and practice.

Written primarily for food scientists and engineers, the book offers a practical, unified approach to the subject. Material is organized in three main parts corresponding to the distances of scale probed by MRI studies-namely, the macroscopic, microscopic, and macromolecular. Throughout, the emphasis is on ways in which studies of food undergoing processes can be modeled using the equations of heat, mass, and momentum transport, and how those models can be used in process design optimization programs.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Food Science provides researchers with the most up-to-date, detailed coverage of:
* Traditional and cutting-edge MRI food imaging techniques and technologies, including STRAFI, gradient-echo imaging, and functional imaging
* Whole plant functional imaging, flow imaging and rheology, and other specialized MRI applications
* The roles of food microstructure and molecular relaxation mechanisms in controlling moisture and heat transport
* Techniques for modeling structural changes during food processing.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Food Science is an important working resource for all researchers engaged in the never-ending struggle to produce safer, higher-quality foods more efficiently. ... Read more

Product Description
Visualization is the art of transforming normally invisible phenomena into visual measurable events by utilizing, for example, fluid or solid tracers, refractory techniques, or by changing wavelengths. Imaging involves recreation of the image of the physical entity from data-sets generated by the various imaging techniques - interferometry, CT, MRI, or ultrasound, as well as other visualization techniques. The papers in this volume examine: object recognition and feature extraction; shape analysis, 3D reconstruction and restoration; pattern recognition; digital imaging processing; neural networks; molecular and cellular motion and transport; tissue and organ characterization; tomography, surface potential and signal analysis. ...
