Fabrizio Cleri (Professor, Lille University (France))
‘Computational Physics for Medical Applications’ begins with the basic terms and definitions, experimental evidences, fundamental concepts and theories of nuclear physics and radioactivity, and takes the student, step by step, through all subjects of physics necessary to understand the operation of modern bio-medical physics equipment. The book covers radiation sources and detectors, radiation-matter interactions and their biological effects, diagnostic radiology and imaging, clinical dosimetry, radiation shielding, and computer simulations thereof, at a level suitable for undergraduates. The books not only describe the basics concepts, but also include numerical and mathematical problems and examples, with complete solutions. Students coming from physics, chemistry or biology-medical background will find the two volumes to be an indispensable resource, in preparations for further graduate studies in the field of medical physics.
