Imaging in Medicine: The L.H. Gray Conference (7th) 13-15 April 1976, Leeds.

Abstract

This topical conference provided an excellent introduction to fundamental aspects of medical image formation and interpretation as well as an account of the current state of the art and a forecast of future techniques. Methods of image formation considered were: x-rays (ionography and computerized tomography), radionuclides, ultrasonics (macro-imaging and acoustic microscopy), thermography, and nuclear magnetic resonance. Special emphasis was given to the problems of image perception, image processing and extraction of numerical information images. This Report discusses some highlights of the Conference and gives the full Conference program as an appendix. (Author)
