Reviews
"In fewer than 214 pages, an astonishing breadth of material is covered... this is a delightful read... every radiologist should give a copy to a nonphysician friend."--AuntMinnie.com, While not all aspects of x-rays and imaging are covered, which would be impossible in a single book, the diversity and selection of examples explored are well chosen and balanced... The author draws on his perspective as a radiologist, medical educator, and humanist to bring together a wide collection of different information and statistics, linking the impact of modern imaging with historic comparisons... Complex issues are well described, using a mixture of simple principles andtechnical physics, making them easy to understand, even for the non-expert.

Synopsis
The discovery of the x-ray in 1895 proved to be one of the most transformative breakthroughs in the history of science. It ushered in a new era in medicine, allowing physicians and patients to peer inside the living human body, without the use of a scalpel, to assess health and diagnose diseases. The x-ray opened up the world of the very small, allowing us to determine the structure of the molecules of which we are made. It also revealed the true nature of thelargest and oldest objects in the universe, including the universe itself. Today it has spawned amazing new imaging techniques, including ultrasound, CT scanning, MR imaging, and nuclear medicine, whichhave opened up remarkable new windows on the structure and function of the human body. This book recounts the stories of the remarkable physicians and scientists who developed these new imaging technologies. It tells the stories of real patients whose lives have been touched, transformed, and in many cases saved by medical imaging. And it shines new light on the surprising ways x-rays have transformed our view of ourselves and the world we inhabit. Richly illustrated with both historicalimages and imaging studies of real patients, X-ray Vision is a feast for the eyes as well as the mind., The discovery of the x-ray in 1895 proved to be one of the most transformative breakthroughs in the history of science.

Richly illustrated with both historical images and imaging studies of real patients, X-ray Vision is a feast for the eyes as well as the mind., X-ray Vision weaves together some of the most fascinating images and accounts in science and medicine. It is the first book to combine stories from the history of medical imaging, the remarkable ways in which it illuminates our lives and the world in which we live, and the lives of real patients whose medical care it has enriched.
