Optronic Techniques in Diagnostic and Therapeutic Medicine [E-Book] / edited by Riccardo Pratesi.
The papers in this Volume were given at a two-day Conference on the subject of Optoelectronics in Medicine. The meeting was held in Florence, and promoted by the Consortium Centro di Eccellenza Optronica (C.E.O.). It represented the first of a series of Meetings on Optoelectronics that C.E.O. is org...
