Molecular Imaging of the Lungs

Addresses new imaging research approaches relevant to studies of pulmonary gene therapy, cystic fibrosis, lung cancer, asthma, acute lung injury, and more, Molecular Imaging of the Lungs reviews current and emerging molecular imaging modalities that are expected to impact the detection and treatment of lung diseases in the near future. An authoritative reference, it includes coverage of applications in gene expression and inflammation imaging; the imaging of pulmonary cytokine regulation; the molecular imaging of angiogenesis, the airways, and lung cancer; and the imaging of cellular death and cell trafficking.
