Notă biografică
Paolo Russo was born in Naples, Italy, in 1958. In 1981, he graduated in Physics from the University of Naples Federico II. From 1984, he was a Research Associate at the University before becoming an Associate Professor in 1992 and then a Full Professor of Medical Physics in 2001. His scientific research is focused on the development of medical imaging systems for digital radiography, computed tomography, and nuclear medicine. The applications of such systems includes autoradiography with microstrip and pixel semiconductor detectors; digital mammography with photon counting detectors; small animal SPECT and semiconductor compact gamma cameras; and a prototype scanner for cone-beam breast computed tomography using attenuation based and phase contrast based methods. From 2008 to 2012, Paolo served as the Associate Editor of the journal "Physica Medica" (European Journal of Medical Physics), before being appointed as the Editor-in-Chief of this journal in January 2013. He is also the vice-chair of the Publications Committee of the IOMP and the chair of the Publications and Communications Committee of the EFOMP. In addition, he frequently acts as a reviewer for several journals in Medical Physics and for research projects for the European Research Foundations. Dr. Russo has co-authored over 140 papers in peer reviewed journals and many scientific book chapters.
Recenzii
"This is a comprehensive book on the application of x-ray technology in diagnostic radiology, industry, and art that serves as an encyclopaedic reference on the subject. It provides a thorough theoretical and historical background to the use of x-rays in medicine as well as their application to industry and art, complete with an up-to-date description of all the x-ray technologies in current practice. The section on x-ray production covers the basic physical processes involved and a wonderful chapter on the history of x-ray tubes, complete with numerous historical photographs, seldom seen in a modern publication.
With over 1300 pages of text, this book is comprehensively devoted to the art of x-ray technology in many fields of research. Each chapter is covered in great depth as exemplified by the numerous references at the end, and, in toto, this book goes well beyond standard textbooks on the subject. Though primarily of interest to diagnostic radiological physicists, this book should be a standard reference book for all medical physics undergraduate, graduate and residency programs. For those whose interests lie outside the field of medicine, the basic physics and technology of x-rays described in this book will serve as a useful complement to their work. "
—Prof. Peter J. Biggs, Massachusetts General Hospital, USA
"If you are looking for an excellent collection of up to date and in depth reviews on X-ray imaging, this is the publication you must have.
The editor Paolo Russo has succeeded in collecting 68 (!) contributions from a total of 130 authors for this tome of the Series in Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering by CRC Press…In between at about half of the pages, a nice and extensive historical image gallery of 56 photos is included with courtesy of the Deutsches Röntgen-Museum…It is impossible to mention equivalent all the excellent contributions in this publications in this limited book review…the articles do not only summarize the findings in their specific area, but state also valuable diagrams and mostly mathematical background formulas, that help to understand the effects and technologies described. This is especially valuable to readers like students, who want to enter a new subject in the field of X-ray physics and technology. Especially the mathematical appendix to the first chapter on "Basic Physics of X-ray Interactions with Matter" starting from the Maxwell equations is a tiny lecture book of its own. Extensive and up to date literature references help to connect to the original publications for each chapter. I strongly recommend this Handbook of X-ray Imaging Physics and Technology in its electronic version to my students as a reference book, as Paolo Russo surely intended it, too, and to you as well."
—Prof. Markus Buchgeister in the European Medical Physics Newsletter, Summer 2018
"An encyclopaedic, though accurate summary of X-ray science covering theoretical, practical and clinical aspect of X-ray imaging technologies in the medical, industrial and research fields makes this Handbook of X-Ray Imaging not only a precious tool for students but also a reference textbook for any scientist of the field and, in particular, for the medical physicists."
—Marco Brambilla, President of the European Federation of Organisations for Medical Physics, head of the Medical Physics Department, University Hospital of Novara
"This is the impressive result of a well coordinated international effort to cover the full breadth of X-ray imaging, from its physical principles, basic technologies and historical perspectives through modern instrumentation for medical as well as non-medical applications up to emerging new developments. This book will certainly mark a new reference in the field and provide a wide range of information for a broad audience, from newcomers to experts in X-ray imaging techniques."
—Katia Parodi, Professor and Chair of Medical Physics, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München
"The "Handbook of X-ray Imaging Physics and Technology" edited by Paolo Russo, covers a wide range of topics in medical imaging physics. It has contributions from experts, making it a unique and distinctive volume of literature in the field of X-ray imaging physics and technology.
The book has been divided into four sections: Basic Physical and Technological aspects; X-ray Radiography and Fluoroscopy; X-ray Computed Tomography; and Phase-Contrast X-ray Imaging and other aspects.
The book has an interesting historical image gallery containing rare photographs on the discovery and use of X-rays over the years. This book, with its detailed and painstaking coverage of all the important topics in X-ray imaging physics and technology, is an invaluable asset for both the teacher and the student. It will certainly be a welcome addition to the libraries of Radiology, Medical Physics, and Bioengineering departments around the world."
— Paul Ravindran, Professor of Radiation Physics, Christian Medical College, Vellore, India
"The Handbook is unique in giving a broad view of x-ray imaging physics. For medical physicists it gives an insight into other fields; going smoothly from the basic science of x-ray physics to in-depth descriptions of different equipment, without forgetting quality and risk management. The Handbook is a must in any radiology and medical department."
