Imaging Culture : Photography in Mali, West Africa
Imaging Culture is a sociohistorical study of the meaning, function, and aesthetic significance of photography in Mali, West Africa, from the 1930s to the present.Spanning the dynamic periods of colonialism, national independence, socialism, and democracy, its analysis focuses on the studio and documentary work of professional urban photographers, particularly in the capital city of Bamako and in smaller cities such as Mopti and Ségu.Featuring the work of more than twenty-five photographers, it concentrates on those who have been particularly influential for the local development and practice of the medium as well as its international popularization and active participation in the contemporary art market.Imaging Culture looks at how local aesthetic ideas are visually communicated in the photographers' art and argues that though these aesthetic arrangements have specific relevance for local consumers, they transcend geographical and cultural boundaries to have value for contemporary global audiences as well.Imaging Culture is an important and visually interesting book which will become a standard source for those who study African photography and its global impact.

Imagining Imaging
From Roentgen to Rembrandt, Hounsfield to Hollywood and Vesalius to videogames, Imagining Imaging explores the deeply entwined relationship between art (and visual-based culture) and radiology / medical imaging.Including artworks from numerous historical eras representing varied geographic locations and visual traditions, alongside a diverse range of contemporary artists, Dr Jackson argues that the foundations of medical image construction and interpretation were laid down in artistic innovations dating back hundreds and thousands of years.Since the discovery of X-rays, artists and moviemakers have, in turn, drawn rich inspiration from radiographic imagery and concepts, but the process of cross-pollination between art and science has continued, with creative endeavour continuing to mould medical imaging examinations to this day. Blending a unique mix of art, science and medical history, together with aspects of visual neurophysiology and psychology, Imagining Imaging is essential reading for radiologists, radiographers and artists alike.Peppered with familiar TV and film references, personal insights into the business of image interpretation, and delivered in an accessible and humorous style, the book will also appeal to anyone who enjoys looking at pictures. Key features:Engaging synthesis of art and medical history, combined with anecdotes and experiences from a working clinical radiologistDiverse range of visual reference points including astronomy, botany and cartography, alongside comprehensive discussion of medical imaging modalities including plain radiography, ultrasound, CT and MRI200 full colour illustrations

What is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)?
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to generate detailed images of the inside of the body. It provides high-resolution images of soft tissues, organs, and structures, making it a valuable tool for diagnosing a wide range of conditions. MRI is commonly used to detect abnormalities in the brain, spine, joints, and internal organs, and is particularly useful for evaluating the brain and spinal cord.

How does a thermal imaging camera work?
A thermal imaging camera works by detecting the heat emitted by an object or person and converting it into a visible image. This is done using a special lens that focuses the infrared light emitted by objects onto a detector, which then converts the information into an electronic signal. The camera then processes this signal to create a visual representation of the heat patterns, with warmer areas appearing as lighter colors and cooler areas as darker colors. This allows the camera to capture and display the thermal energy emitted by objects, making it useful for various applications such as night vision, building inspections, and medical diagnostics.

Medical Imaging
A prize-winning medical writer offers an explanation of modern diagnostic medical imaging technologies—and the issues that result from their use and misuse. Medical Imaging describes the discovery and development of diagnostic imaging technologies, explaining how the technologies work and exploring some of the issues that such powerful and expensive technologies create.The book begins with the discovery of X-rays in 1895 and traces the history of imaging technology through today’s tools, such as X-ray computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional imaging by positron emission tomography (PET), and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).The contribution of these expensive technologies to the rising cost of healthcare in the United States and the unequal distribution of imaging diagnostic facilities, particularly in developing countries, is also considered.In addition, the book explores ethical questions that have surfaced in the past, including the reportability of incidental findings during a scan and admissibility of medical images as evidence in courts of law , and such newly emerging issues as the application of imaging tools in lie detection and the mammography guidelines controversy of 2009. Various charts and illustrations show medical imaging modalities, Medicare medical imaging costs, distribution of imaging costs, physicians' fees by modality, nuclear imaging probes, and medical imaging physicsA glossary defines key terms necessary to understanding medical imaging technology such as "positron," "half-life," and “tomography," as well as acronyms such as "MRI,", "PET," "SPECT," and "CT"Presents documents including early popular science articles on X-ray technology and its abuse

How are thermal imaging cameras used in hunting?
Thermal imaging cameras are used in hunting to detect the heat signatures of animals in low-light or dark conditions. Hunters can use these cameras to locate and track game, as the heat signatures of animals stand out against the cooler background. This technology allows hunters to see animals that may be otherwise hidden by foliage or darkness, improving their chances of a successful hunt. Additionally, thermal imaging cameras can help hunters track wounded animals by following their heat signature.
-
How can a thermal imaging camera penetrate materials?
A thermal imaging camera can penetrate materials because it detects the infrared radiation emitted by objects and materials. This radiation is produced by the heat energy that all objects and materials emit as a result of their temperature. The camera's sensors can detect this radiation and convert it into a visual image, allowing the camera to "see" through materials and capture the heat signatures of objects behind them. This makes thermal imaging cameras useful for various applications, such as detecting heat leaks in buildings, locating hot spots in electrical systems, and even identifying objects in low visibility conditions.
