This must-have text provides an insight into the science behind radiographic technology. Suitable for radiography and radiology students at all levels, the text uses illustrations and simple analogies to explain the fundamentals, while retaining more complex concepts for those with a more advanced knowledge of radiological physics. Updated by authors Martin Vosper, Andrew England and Victoria Major to reflect advances and key topics in medical imaging practice, this text will support radiographers in their core role of obtaining high quality images and optimal treatment outcomes.
