Ecografia in oncologia : Testo-Atlante di ultrasonologia diagnostica e interventistica dei tumori = Ultrasound in oncology : Text-Atlas of diagnostic and interventional ultrasound of tumors
Offers detailed information on the key applications of different ultrasound techniques to the study of tumors. The necessary background on the major problems of clinical oncology is provided: screening, identification, characterization and staging of malignant neoplasms, evaluation of the therapeutic response, follow-up. The examination technique and the interpretative principles of all ultrasound techniques are carefully discussed (grayscale ultrasound, color-Doppler, pulsed Doppler, power-Doppler, echocontrastography), with particular attention to the practical aspects, to the "tricks of the trade. "and the potential methodological and semeiological pitfalls. Particular emphasis is placed on those areas where ultrasound plays a decisive role compared to other diagnostic imaging methods, with a practical and original approach, for "clinical problems". The main eco-interventional, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are illustrated in detail. The very rich iconography, also including a CD-ROM with original videos, punctually integrates the text. A compact and homogeneous work, necessary for all doctors, both radiologists and non-radiologists, who deal with ultrasound.

Échographie de contraste : Méthodologie et applications cliniques = Contrast ultrasound : Methodology and clinical applications
The availability of ultrasound contrast agents has introduced a new dimension in ultrasound examination with the possibility of real-time exploration of the kinetics of contrast enhancement of various lesions. The potential indications for these microbubbles affect almost all deep and superficial organs, but also the possibilities of pharmacological studies for neoangiogenesis or therapeutic guidance by physical methods. Finally, new applications are emerging in the field of targeted products and the transport of active ingredients. It seemed opportune to us to attempt to take stock of this changing world through intense collaboration between the various teams involved and recognized in this field, of which unfortunately, only some are represented here. We want this book to be a current reference point for contrast ultrasound, a point that will certainly require development in the coming years. He strongly demonstrates that ultrasound can play a very important role in modern diagnostic and therapeutic imaging because of their diagnostic performance but also because of their non-invasive nature. We hope you enjoy looking for useful information as much as we did discovering real-time functional ultrasound imaging and writing these various chapters.

Earth science satellite remote sensing ; Vol.1 : Science and instruments
Satellite remote sensing for Earth science data has been rapidly expanding during the last decade. Volume 1 of this two volume monograph covers missions/sensors, such as Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS), Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS), Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS), and Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU). It also discusses the NPOESS and NPP missions. Emphasis was placed on the recently launched Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board of both Terra and Aqua. Some key MODIS science team members were invited to contribute several chapters. The core of this monograph arose from the workshop for Earth Science Satellite Remote Sensing held at George Mason University (GMU) in October 2002. Both volumes are designed to give scientists and graduate students with limited remote sensing background a thorough introduction to current and future NASA, NOAA and other Earth science remote sensing missions.
