Features: The main content of the textbook includes: the basic principles of simulation and mathematical X-ray imaging, photographic conditions, and the formation and detection of basic images; the quality and basic evaluation of X-ray images; the working principles and application techniques of digital X-ray photography (including CR, DR); X-ray photography examination positions and related content; the principles and techniques of digital subtraction angiography (DSA); the principles and application techniques of computer tomography (CT); the principles and application techniques of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); an overview of interventional radiology; ultrasonic imaging examination techniques (USI); nuclear medicine examination techniques (NMI); medical information systems and medical photography management. The main feature of this textbook is to strengthen the connection between the knowledge of various examination principles and applications. The content covers a broad scope with appropriate depth, emphasizing the practicality and advancement of the textbook. The selection of new and old knowledge is reasonable. In the imaging theory section, especially in complex mathematical derivation and calculation content, the focus is on introducing the physical meaning and conclusions, rather than the calculation process. Reduce or remove the content of examination techniques that are now basically obsolete, and provide a comprehensive description of each position. Appropriately increase the selection and standards of positions. At the same time, integrate and supplement some relatively new and practical clinical techniques. Considering that some content is abstract and difficult to understand, a large number of charts and photos have been used in the textbook to make it more intuitive and easier to understand. According to teaching needs and actual conditions, basic experimental content has been designed in the textbook. Considering the limitations of equipment conditions in some schools, some clinical observation experiments have also been arranged.
