About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"The book provides an overview of radiation detectors for medical applications in general, with particular emphasis on scintillation detectors. ... All chapters include figures, tables, and illustrations that have been reproduced with good quality. ... Overall, I found the book to be a valuable resource on scintillation radiation detectors and their medical applications. This book should be part of any medical physics, health physics, radiology, or radiation oncology library. It will also be a good reference for scientists and engineers ... ."
