The choice of texts was limited and tended to be dominated by a few \"classic\" (a phrase not quite synonymous with dogma). Following the information explosion, the scenario is quite different. Not only is there a geometric progression in the quantity and speed of devel­ opment of new medical knowledge, but also this development is occurring at very dif­ ferent rates in different countries. This is particularly true in medical imaging. The result is that it is now virtually impossible to produce a \"single author\" book that can cover the field or even a subdivi­ sion of it. This absolute requirement for multiple authors has in turn created the need for a new type of editor\/author who must be multinational in approach, have a uniquely informed appreciation of what is going on in medical imaging research throughout the entire world and possess the depth of personal knowledge and experience to judge cor­ rectly what work is the most rigorous and likely to have the greatest impact.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-01-22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9781447111795\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781447111795\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4471-0693-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 279cm x210cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 588\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44340844789900,"sku":"9781447111795","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781447111795.jpg?v=1755045185","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781447111795","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
