商品描述
This book draws on experience teaching medical physics graduate students and residents to offer a self-contained and rigorous introduction to the physics of X ray tubes, medical linear accelerators (Linacs), X ray photon-counting detectors (PCDs), and X-ray energy-integrating detectors. It directly addresses the conceptual challenges learners face in understanding the operating principles of PCDs and Linacs, using an approach that is intuitive without sacrificing depth.
The book is organized into six focused chapters covering basic semiconductor physics, semiconductor detector structure and elements, semiconductor photon counting detector (PCD) physics, physics of inorganic scintillators and scintillator image detectors, physics in x-ray tubes, and waveguide physics in medical Linacs. Core physical principles and governing laws are developed through first principles-based derivations, supported by schematic illustrations and real-world examples that reinforce both conceptual understanding and practical application.
Written for medical physics and bioengineering students, residents, researchers, and educators, the book assumes no prior background in semiconductor physics while providing a rigorous explanation of how modern X-ray detectors, tubes, and Linac systems work. By strengthening fundamental understanding, it equips readers to master current technologies and contribute to future innovation in X ray sources and detectors.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書奠基於作者教授醫學物理學研究生與住院醫師的經驗，提供一套自成一體且嚴謹的導論，介紹 X 射線管、醫用線性加速器（medical linear accelerators，Linacs）、X 射線光子計數偵測器（photon-counting detectors，PCDs）及 X 射線能量積分偵測器（energy-integrating detectors）的物理原理。本書直接處理學習者在理解 PCD 與 Linac 操作原理時所面臨的概念性挑戰，採用直觀易懂的方法，同時不犧牲內容深度。
本書分為六個主題明確的章節，涵蓋基礎半導體物理、半導體偵測器的結構與元件、半導體光子計數偵測器（PCD）物理、無機閃爍體與閃爍體影像偵測器的物理、X 射線管中的物理，以及醫用 Linac 中的波導物理。書中以第一原理為基礎進行推導，建立核心物理原理與支配定律，並搭配示意圖與實際案例，強化讀者的概念理解及實務應用能力。
本書適合醫學物理學與生物工程學領域的學生、住院醫師、研究人員及教育工作者閱讀。全書不預設讀者具備半導體物理背景，同時嚴謹說明現代 X 射線偵測器、X 射線管與 Linac 系統的運作方式。透過強化基礎理解，本書將協助讀者掌握現有技術，並為 X 射線源與偵測器的未來創新作出貢獻。
作者簡介
Ke Li, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Imaging Physics and the Department of Interventional Radiology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. He earned his B.S. in Physics from Nanjing University in 2006, his M.S. in Physics from The Ohio State University in 2009, and his Ph.D. in Medical Physics from the University of Wisconsin (UW)-Madison in 2013.
Prior to joining MD Anderson in 2024, Dr. Li was a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Medical Physics at UW-Madison, home to the oldest and largest Medical Physics Ph.D. program in the United States. From 2020 to 2023, he co-taught Radiation Detection and Production, a core course in the UW Medical Physics Graduate Program. This book is an expanded version of the lecture notes he developed for that course. He has also taught several other medical physics graduate-level courses such as Principles of X-ray Computed Tomography and Introduction to Medical Physics II: Medical Imaging, at UW-Madison or MD Anderson. His teaching has consistently received top ratings from graduate students at both institutions.
In addition to teaching, Dr. Li is an active researcher focused on developing advanced X-ray and CT imaging technologies, including photon-counting detector CT. He has published more than 80 peer-reviewed papers, along with two book chapters, and 10 US patents. He has also provided extensive volunteer service to the medical physics and radiology communities, including serving as a program chair for the annual conferences of Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), the Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) Medical Imaging, and the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM).
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
Ke Li 博士是 The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center 影像物理學系及介入放射學系的副教授。他於 2006 年取得 Nanjing University 物理學學士學位，2009 年取得 The Ohio State University 物理學碩士學位，並於 2013 年取得 University of Wisconsin (UW)-Madison 醫學物理學博士學位。
在 2024 年加入 MD Anderson 之前，Li 博士曾任職於 UW-Madison 醫學物理學系的終身職副教授。UW-Madison 擁有美國歷史最悠久且規模最大的醫學物理學博士班。2020 年至 2023 年間，他共同教授 UW 醫學物理學研究所的核心課程《Radiation Detection and Production》。本書即是他為該課程編寫之講義的擴充版本。此外，他也曾在 UW-Madison 或 MD Anderson 教授其他數門醫學物理學研究所層級的課程，例如《Principles of X-ray Computed Tomography》及《Introduction to Medical Physics II: Medical Imaging》。他的教學在這兩所機構均持續獲得研究生的高度評價。
除了教學之外，Li 博士也是一名活躍的研究人員，專注於開發先進的 X-ray 與 CT 影像技術，包括 photon-counting detector CT。他已發表超過 80 篇經同儕評審的論文、兩篇書籍章節，以及 10 項美國專利。他也長期為醫學物理學與放射學界提供志願服務，包括擔任 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA)、Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) Medical Imaging，以及 American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) 年度會議的議程主席。
