This books brings together multi-disciplinary expertise to provide comprehensive information about molecular imaging of infectious diseases. Also described are the development of new imaging technologies for infectious disease and their translation to the clinic.

The overall goal of Imaging Infections: From Bench to Bedside is to spur interest and innovation in this emerging field. We anticipate that these technologies will not only allow unique insights into understanding pathogenesis of infections but also expedite bench-to-bedside translation of new therapeutics. While molecular imaging is already in common use in the clinic, this book demonstrates how it could also become a valuable tool for clinical studies, patient care, public health, and for enabling precision medicine for infectious diseases.

“This book is a scholarly contribution to the subject of imaging infections and brings together in one volume a lot of the cutting-edge knowledge in the field. It is aimed more at bedside clinicians and laboratory scientists but would be profitably read by all involved in dealing with infectious diseases.” (Dr. Arpan K. Banerjee, RAD Magazine, December, 2017)
