About this book
The objective of this fourth volume in the series Advances in Electromagnetic Fields in Living Systems remains the same as previous volumes: to add a number of significant advances in this area of research to scientific and professional literature.
In general, the interaction of electromagnetic fields and waves with biological systems is frequency-dependent.
Moreover, the mechanisms of interaction for fields at low frequencies are very different from those at high frequencies.
While significant advances are being made on many fronts, a special emphasis of this volume is on current and future biomedical applications of electromagnetic fields, ranging in frequency from quasi-static to the optical domain. Each chapter consists of a comprehensive presentation of a topic of current interest and growing importance.
Written for:
Scientists, graduate students, and other researchers involved in the fields of Diagnostic Radiology, Radiation Biology, Biological Physics, Cardiac Imaging, Medical Physics, Biophysics, optical spectroscopy, and Imaging.
