Product Description 
The target audiences for this book are practicing radiologists, medical physicists, and technologists. The topics covered reflect the day-to-day needs of supporting a CT scanner from the perspective of a CT protocol optimization team. A realization of Medical Physics 3.0 must involve an appreciation of the administrative, clinical, and technical sides of CT imaging. Since the author treats all of these facets in the book, it embodies the mission of Medical Physics 3.0 for CT. The text doesn t shy away from comparing features from different vendors. Providing vendor-specific information allows one to gain real-world insight into MDCT scanner reconstruction and AEC operation. Special Features Include: Over 300 example artifact images. Multiple chapters with guidance on setting up protocols. 
 About the Author 
Timothy Szczykutowicz, Ph.D., DABR, received his B.S. in physics from the SUNY University at Buffalo in 2008. He went on to complete his Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin working with Chuck Mistretta, widely known as the inventor of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and Guang-Hong Chen, a pioneer in CT image reconstruction. He is currently an associate professor in the department of Radiology at the University of Wisconsin Madison with affiliate appointments in Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics. The clinical and research activities of Dr. Szczykutowicz include optimizing CT protocols, monitoring patient dose, developing new metrics to define image quality in the clinical setting, developing protocol management methodologies, fluence field modulated CT, dual-energy CT, and assisting in various projects related to cone-beam CT.
