Breast imaging.This book provides a comprehensive overview of thermoacoustic imaging approaches. It describes the fundamentals of thermoacoustic tomography (TAT) including the theory on thermoacoustic effect, image reconstruction methods and instrumentation; details advanced approaches for quantitative TAT, which allows for the recovery of tissue conductivity and mechanical properties; explores the development of several image enhancing schemes including both software and hardware approaches; examines array-based TAT systems that are the foundation of fast 2D and 3D TAT; considers high-resolution TAT approaches and combinations of TAT with other imaging methods; addresses contrast agent-based molecular TAT; and discusses clinical applications and animal studies in the areas of brain, breast, joint, thyroid, liver and vascular imaging. This book is a valuable resource for students, academics, and industry specialists--including biomedical engineers, electrical engineers, physicists and mathematicians. Part of IPEM-IOP Series in Physics and Engineering in Medicine and Biology.Students, professors, and researchers (both academic and industrial) including biomedical engineers, electrical engineers, physicists, mathematicians, and physicians.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.Huabei Jiang, PhD, joined University of South Florida (USF) in 2017 as a founding faculty of medical engineering department and the founding Director of USF Center for Advanced Biomedical Imaging. Professor Jiang has published two books and over 400 peer-reviewed scientific articles and patents. Huabei Jiang spends much of his time practicing Chinese Calligraphy and painting, with the first exhibition of his artworks in July 2019 in Chengdu, China.Title from PDF title page (viewed on April 6, 2020).
