Molecular Fluorescence
Date: Jan 15, 2002
Author: Bernard Valeur
Today, fluorescence spectroscopy is an important tool of investigation in many areas. In analytical sciences, its advantage is extremely high sensitivity and selectivity - even single molecules can be detected - and it achieves a high spatial resolution and time resolution in combination with microscopic techniques or laser techniques, respectively. In material sciences, this is used to study structure and dynamics of surfaces. Particularly in the areas of biochemistry and molecular genetics, fluorescence...

The Chemistry of Contrast Agents in Medical Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Date: Jan 23, 2001
Author: André E. Merbach, Éva Tóth
There has been a huge increase in the use of MRI and contrast agents in medicine in recent years as evidenced by a big increase in the number of hospitals with MRI machines and the ever-increasing number of examinations using contrast agents. Contrast agents have revolutionized the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in medical diagnostics, allowing doctors to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues and ultimately improving prognosis for the patient. This monograph covers all aspects of...

Principles of Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Signal Processing Perspective
Date: Oct 18, 1999
Author: Zhi-Pei Liang, Paul C. Lauterbur
In 1971 Dr. Paul C. Lauterbur pioneered spatial information encoding principles that made image formation possible by using magnetic resonance signals. Now Lauterbur, "father of the MRI", and Dr. Zhi-Pei Liang have co-authored the first engineering textbook on magnetic resonance imaging. This long-awaited, definitive text will help undergraduate and graduate students of biomedical engineering, biomedical imaging scientists, radiologists, and electrical engineers gain an in-depth understanding of MRI...
