Image Processing in Radiation Therapy

Moo K. Chung University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA Chapman & Hall/CRC Mathematical and Computational Imaging Sciences Series

The massive amount of nonstandard high-dimensional brain imaging data being generated is often difficult to analyze using current techniques. This challenge in brain image analysis requires new computational approaches and solutions. Unfortunately, few research papers or books in the field describe the quantitative techniques with detailed illustrations of actual imaging data and computer codes. Using MATLAB® and case study data sets, this is the first book to explicitly explain how to perform statistical analysis on brain imaging data.

Written to provide an overview of the electrical engineering profession to college students and professionals outside the field of electrical engineering, this textbook provides information on the necessary technical competencies required within the field. Simple and easy-to-use, it teaches the fundamentals of electrical engineering without including the typical analytical methods that hold little relevance for non-electrical engineers. Many examples explaining concepts and homework problems are included within the chapters to aid with student comprehension and application. A solutions manual is provided as well, upon qualification.

Series: Monographs and Research Notes in Mathematics

A good example of a sinusoid is that of a continuous musical sound where the Fourier transforms are used to calculate the discrete set of amplitudes that involve the Fourier series. Designed for mathematicians, scientists, and engineers in signal processing, this reference explains that sinusoids represent periodic functions of the sine or cosine. The book explores the use and historical development of Fourier series, signals, and filters. This material then leads to useful applications of sinusoids in areas that include telecommunications, spectroscopy, acoustics, and more.
