Description

Imaging studies are frequently used to evaluate the success of cancer treatments for a variety of tumor types. This text addresses a variety of cutting-edge imaging techniques, including their use for best practice, and provides examples of results found in both pre-clinical and clinical studies. It covers the entire spectrum of in vivo imaging for oncology, including current approaches to detailed anatomic measurements, MR and optical spectroscopy, and molecular imaging techniques requiring exogenously administered imaging agents. The challenges and approaches to quantification are also outlined. In vivo imaging will continue to have profound effects on how we think about, detect, diagnose, treat and monitor cancer. It will aide clinicians at all levels in keeping up with the most cutting-edge techniques.
