Leading experts in both fields from Europe and the Unit- ed States were invited to give a critical overview; digital fluoroscopy is reported on mainly by American scientists since this technique has been developed primarily in the United States, while the results of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging are pre- sented by British groups currently at the forefront of research in this field. The pa- pers reflect the state of the art at mid-1981, when the contributors gathered for the yearly symposium on Current Topics in Diagnostic Radiology in Berne, Switzer- land. Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, also known as spin imaging or zeugmato- graphy, has produced striking progress within the past few years - even within the past few months - as described in three papers of this volume. The images generally reflect the distribution of mobile protons contained within water and fats, and pro- vide remarkable discrimination between different tissues. Malignant tissue might be identified with this technique, and a wide range of disorders associated with water concentration, diffusion, and flow would be amenable to study; the measurement of blood flow could be particularly interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45280424001687,"sku":"9783642483240","price":7345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783642483240.webp?v=1769296280","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/frontiers-in-european-radiology-9783642483240","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
