| Summary |
"Drawn from many years of classroom notes, student reactions, and personal experience, Foundations of Biomedical Ultrasound covers the fundamental physics and engineering behind ultrasound systems, properties of acoustic wave motion, the behavior of waves in various media, nonlinear wave propagation, and the formation of ultrasound images. It provides a comprehensive coverage of the field and is an indispensable reference for medical and industrical professionals working with and designing ultrasound systems. The text also provides a valuable introduction to the subject for students."--BOOK JACKET |
