Thoroughly and systematically presents the state-of-the-art in
the diagnostic uses of radiologic imaging and nuclear medicine in
the diagnosis and management of infectious and inflammatory
diseases

Although our understanding of microorganisms has advanced
significantly and antimicrobial therapy has become increasingly
available, infection remains a major cause of patient morbidity and
mortality. Imaging of infection and inflammation provides a classic
example of radiology and nuclear medicine's strengths as well
as weaknesses in the discovery and diagnosis of disease.
Fortunately, the weaknesses are subsiding as new studies and
techniques point to better planning and precision in the use of
single and combined imaging modalities.

Diagnostic Imaging of Infections and Inflammatory Diseases: A
Multidisciplinary Approach deals with the very latest
developments in the use of radiologic techniques and modalities in
the management of patients with a host of infectious and
inflammatory diseases. Tremendously timely and useful, this
innovative, multidisciplinary book covers a wide range of topics in
three parts:

PART 1: Infections and Host Response

* Epidemiology of Infections in the New Century

* Bacterial Osteomyelitis: the Clinician Point of View

PART 2: Radiological Imaging

* Radiological Imaging of Osteomyelitis

* Radiological Imaging of Spine Infection

* Radiological Imaging of Soft Tissue Infections

* Radiological Imaging of Abdominal Infections and Inflammatory
Disease

* Radiological Imaging of Vascular Graft Infection

* Radiological Imaging of TB and HIV

PART 3: Nuclear Medicine Imaging

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Infections: Techniques, Acquisition
Protocols, and Interpretation Criteria

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Osteomyelitis: WBC, Monoclonal
Antibody, or Bacterial Imaging?

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Spondylodiscitis: The Emerging Role
of PET

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Soft Tissue Infections

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Infections and Inflammatory
Diseases of the Abdomen

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Vascular Graft Infections: The
Added Role of Hybrid Imaging

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of TB and HIV

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Fever of Unknown Origin

* Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Inflammatory Diseases

Along with carefully developed clinical cases describing the
management of patients with inflammation and infection,
Diagnostic Imaging of Infections and Inflammatory Diseases
is an ideal guide for radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians
as well as clinical specialists from many other fields.
