Overview

The book carefully examines the most recent progress in diagnostic imaging and explains how important technologies work, their medical uses and how AI is starting to shape the field. The field begins with standard methods such as X-ray imaging, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine, but it has advanced to new techniques like photon-counting CT, body positron emission CT (PET), ultra-high-field MRI, photoacoustic imaging and ultrasound devices small enough to carry in your hand. For every technique, information is given on construction, how it is used, what kinds of images it provides and associated patient considerations, with an emphasis on how spatial detail, contrast and ability to image functions and molecules have improved. It marks an important moment because AI now leads to automatic analysis, better lesion detection, more accurate segmentation and identification of quantitative biomarkers on images. AI supports clinicians with less variation in diagnostic approaches, faster imaging work and more access to imaging services in locations where these are scarce.
