This book addresses the state of the art in the design of semiconductor detectors and integrated circuits, in the context of medical imaging using ionizing radiation. It explains how circuits for radiation are built, focusing on practical information about how they are being used, rather than mathematical details. It also discusses new opportunities in X-ray detection, computer tomography, and nuclear medicine. Written by industrial and academic experts, the text also explores emerging detector technologies, circuit design techniques, new materials, and innovative system approaches.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Krzysztof (Kris) Iniewski manages R&D at Redlen Technologies, Inc., a startup company in British Columbia, Canada. He is also an executive director of CMOS Emerging Technologies, Inc. (www.cmoset.com). His research interests are in hardware design for biomedical and networking applications. From 2004 to 2006, he was an associate professor at the Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering Department of University of Alberta, where he conducted research on low power wireless circuits and systems. During his tenure in Edmonton, he put together a book for CRC Press titled Wireless Technologies: Circuits, Systems and Devices. From 1995 to 2003, he was with PMC-Sierra and held various technical and management positions. During that time, he led development of number of VLSI chips used in optical networks. Prior to joining PMC-Sierra, from 1990 to 1994, he was an assistant professor at the University of Toronto's Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering. Dr. Iniewski has published more than 100 research papers in international journals and conferences. He holds 18 international patents granted in the USA, Canada, France, Germany, and Japan. He received his Ph.D in electronics (honors) from the Warsaw University of Technology, Poland in 1988.
