Hegyeli, R J

The spectrum of techniques examined includes Doppler imaging, echocardiography, nuclear magnetic resonance, positron emission tomography scanning, subtraction radiography, strain gauge plethysmography, and ultrasound. For each of these methods, the authors consider the theoretical bases, practical pros and cons, and clinical and research applications. Detailed attention is devoted to comparison of these techniques with respect to sensitivity, accuracy, speed, and quality of images and data.
