Physical Principles of Ultrasonic Diagnosis. By Peter N. T. Wells, pp. viii + 282, 1969 (Academic Press, London and New York), 80s.

This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

This book is the first in a series on medical physics giving the physical basis of present and developing techniques. It is a concise account of the physics background of medical ultrasonic diagnosis. Although it is intended to be of interest to diagnostic radiologists as well as hospital physicists, only those who have a special interest in the subject will be able to understand and follow the mathematics and circuits necessary to cover the subject.
