* The ability to manipulate and analyze pictorial information to improve medical diagnosis, monitoring, and therapy via imaging is a valuable tool that every professional working in radiography, medical imaging, and medical physics should utilize. However, previous texts on the subject have only approached the subject from a programming or computer science viewpoint at a mathematically inaccessible level. Unlike these previous publications, A Practical Approach to Medical Imaging Processing provides hands-on instruction, using the freely available software program ImageJ, on all of the skills needed to perform filtering and image enhancement techniques used in structured image discrimination. *

* With the development of neural science, knowledge of the molecules and neurons that comprise the brain has increased exponentially in the past two decades. In this book, leading neuroscientists from Japan and Taiwan describe the latest and most relevant research in brain science, including state-of-the-art brain-imaging technologies such as fMRI, MR-DTI, TMS, and MEG. They also discuss learning, memory, emotions, and pain. With a wide range of contributors, the book presents valuable insights into functional neuroimaging, white matter tractography, synaptic plasticity, emotional memory storage, and other recent cognitive brain research. An entirely new and unique field of study is introduced in the learning and memory section: the relationship between well-developed oral cavities and highly advanced functions of the brain. In its entirety, this compilation is a valuable resource for neuroscientists, radiologists, odontologists, and gerontologists, as well as for students of dentistry and medicine. *
