Quantitative Ultrasound in Soft Tissues, 2nd Edition ()

by Jonathan Mamou (Author)

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) continues to mature as a research field and is primed to make a swift transition to routine preclinical and clinical applications. It has the potential to revolutionize the way we diagnose and monitor various medical conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and musculoskeletal disorders. In the second edition of “Quantitative Ultrasound: Theory and Applications,” Jonathan Mamou provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of this rapidly evolving field, covering both the theoretical and practical aspects of QUS.

This book serves as an advanced educational resource for individuals interested in delving deeper into the world of QUS. Whether you are a graduate student, researcher, or medical professional, this book offers a thorough understanding of the theoretical, physical, and engineering principles behind QUS. Mamou’s expertise and clear writing style make complex concepts accessible to readers with various levels of background knowledge.

The second edition builds upon the success of the first edition, incorporating recent developments and advancements in the field. It features contributions from leading researchers and experts, ensuring that readers stay up-to-date with the latest breakthroughs and applications of QUS.

This book is divided into six main sections, each addressing a specific research topic related to quantitative ultrasound of soft tissues:

  1. Spectral-based methods for tissue characterization, tissue typing, cancer detection, etc.
  2. Attenuation estimation for tissue characterization and improving spectral-based methods.
  3. Envelope statistics analysis as a means of quantifying and imaging tissue properties.
  4. Ultrasound computed tomography for preclinical and clinical imaging.
  5. Scanning acoustic microscopy for forming images of mechanical properties of soft tissues with micron resolution.
  6. Phantoms for quantitative ultrasound.

Each section provides a comprehensive overview of the topic, highlighting key concepts, methodologies, and recent advancements. The inclusion of practical examples and case studies further enhances the learning experience, allowing readers to apply their knowledge to real-world scenarios.

One of the key strengths of this book is its focus on bridging the gap between theory and practice. Mamou provides a practical perspective on how QUS can be implemented in clinical settings, emphasizing its potential for improving patient outcomes and revolutionizing healthcare. By highlighting the current challenges and future directions of QUS, the book also encourages readers to actively contribute to ongoing research and development in the field.

In addition to its educational value, “Quantitative Ultrasound: Theory and Applications” also serves as a valuable resource for researchers and professionals seeking to stay abreast of the latest advancements in the field. The inclusion of contributions from leading experts ensures that the book reflects the current state of the art in quantitative ultrasound.

The 2nd edition also introduces new topics and expands on existing ones to ensure comprehensive coverage of the field. It includes in-depth discussions on spectral-based methods for tissue characterization, attenuation estimation for improved spectral-based methods, envelope statistics analysis, ultrasound computed tomography, scanning acoustic microscopy, and the use of phantoms for quantitative ultrasound.

Whether you are an aspiring researcher, a medical professional interested in incorporating QUS into your practice, or simply curious about the future of medical imaging, “Quantitative Ultrasound: Theory and Applications” is a must-read.
