Advances in Medical Imaging: From Behavioral Analysis to Disease Prevention and Rehabilitation presents a comprehensive exploration of the rapidly evolving field of medical imaging at the crossroads of clinical science, behavioral research, and public health. This book addresses the growing need to understand how advanced imaging technologies—such as MRI, PET, and ultrasound—are transforming healthcare beyond traditional diagnosis. By capturing structural, functional, metabolic, and molecular processes, these innovations provide new insights into brain function, lifestyle impacts, chronic disease, and rehabilitation, supporting the shift toward personalized and preventive medicine.
The book is organized into five thematic sections covering a wide range of topics. Early chapters focus on the integration of neuroimaging with behavioral science, highlighting brain–behavior relationships through cutting-edge imaging modalities and cognitive software. Subsequent sections examine the effects of sedentary lifestyles on brain health, vascular function assessed by ultrasound, and musculoskeletal aging through imaging biomarkers. Additional chapters explore chronic disease management, yoga and cognitive well-being, stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury rehabilitation, and the expanding role of imaging in oncology and systemic diseases. Throughout, the book emphasizes the use of artificial intelligence, radiomics, and multimodal imaging to enhance precision medicine and population health research.
Advances in Medical Imaging: From Behavioral Analysis to Disease Prevention and Rehabilitation offers valuable insights for researchers, clinicians, and healthcare professionals interested in the applications of medical imaging across multiple disciplines. It highlights imaging’s critical role in advancing personalized care, supporting preventive strategies, and fostering innovation in modern healthcare.
