What to read after Physics Notes: Medical Physics?

Physics Notes: Medical Physics is an introduction to the fascinating world of medical physics. It covers the important diagnostic techniques used in radiology departments across the world. X-ray production, X-ray imaging, CT scans, ultrasound production, ultrasound A and B scans, Doppler scans, radionuclide imaging, the Gamma Camera, medical tracers, PET scans, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are all covered in detail. A linked glossary of terms is included at the end.

Each chapter has high quality diagrams and at least one example question to provide additional context to some of the key concepts and equations. The content is tailored to those getting started with medical imaging concepts. Familiarity with some fundamental physics knowledge is assumed (e.g. rearranging equations, photon energy calculations, radioactive decay).

Some chapters include animations to further illustrate concepts. I plan to extend the content of this book with additional animations as I create them. All of my existing medical physics animations are available on my YouTube channel.
