This lecture note includes a series of lectures with a parallel set of recitations that provide demonstrations of basic principles. Both ionizing and non-ionizing radiation are covered, including x-ray, PET, MRI, and ultrasound. Emphasis on the physics and engineering of image formation.

The Molecular Imaging and Contrast Agent Database is an online source of scientific information regarding molecular imaging and contrast agents. The database includes, but is not limited to, agents developed for positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT), optical imaging, planar radiography, and planar gamma imaging.

This wikibook is primarily for students with foundations in anatomy and physiology and could also be of interest to physics and engineering students requiring a topic overview. The intent is a text which succinctly explains the physical basis of X-Rays and their modern application in Diagnostic Radiography. The focus extends from general radiography through fluoroscopy to 3D angiography as applied in general hospitals and clinics.

Pharmacology is a broad discipline encompassing every aspect of the study of drugs, including their discovery and development and the testing of their action in the body. This book aims to explain how scientists unravel the many different ways medicines work in the body and how this information guides the hunt for drugs of the future.

This book explains the following topics: Continental Medicine Chests, Treason, Poison and Siege, , Privateers To The Rescue, Brisk Business In Boston, Valley Forge.

The purpose of this book is to bring together scholarly articles that highlight recent developments and trends in pharmaceutical formulation science. This book aims to serve the need of all individuals involved at any level in the pharmaceutical dosage form development.

The guideline on Drug misuse sets out clear, evidence-based recommendations for healthcare staff on how to work with people who misuse opioids to significantly improve their treatment and care, and to deliver detoxification safely and effectively.

Basic Concepts in Pharmacology: What You Need to Know for Each Drug Class is not a conventional review book for pharmacology. It is a book to help you organize your attack on the hundreds of drugs covered in pharmacology classes today. Our survey for the first edition of this book made it clear that it is the number of drugs in a particular class that students find overwhelming. This fear causes many students to lose focus on the most important part of pharmacology�the concepts.

Pharmacology is the study of interaction of drugs with living organisms. It also includes history, source, physicochemical properties, dosage forms, methods of administration, absorption, distribution mechanism of action, biotransformation, excretion, clinical uses and adverse effects of drugs. This PDF covers the following topics related to Pharmacology : General pharmacology, Drugs acting on autonomic nervous system, Cardiovascular-renal drugs, Autacoids and their antagonists, Drugs Action on the Respiratory System, Drugs used in Gastrointestinal Diseases, Drugs used to treat the diseases of blood, inflammation and gout, Drugs acting in the central nervous system, Endocrine Drugs, Chemotherapeutic Agents, Toxicology, Prescription writing and rational use of drugs.

Biopharmaceuticals are derived from biological sources, either live organisms or their active components; nowadays, they are mainly produced by biotechnologies. This book encompasses the discovery, production, application, and regulation of biopharmaceuticals to demonstrate their research achievement, prospects, and challenges.

The purpose of the textbook is to help the students of higher medical institutions of the 4th level of accreditation to study general concepts of Pharmacology and properties of drugs acting on different systems of the human body. This textbook has been prepared in order to improve the students� self-training for the lessons under the conditions of implementation of the educational system of Bolonga.
