Computed Tomography

Review
"...Computed Tomography a quite welcome addition to the slim canon of materials available." "The design of the pages cannot be praised enough; the handwritten tables and illustrations are inviting, rather than forbidding." "...presentation is so precise..." "...on the whole this handbook fills a gap on the CT bookshelf."
