Fluorescence Molecular Tomography: Principles and Applications

Fluorescence Molecular Tomography: Principles and Applications is the  first book to cover the underlying principles and practical applications  of fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT) in a systematic manner.  Using a tutorial approach, the text begins with an overview of the  fundamentals of FMT and goes on to detail image reconstruction  approaches (including linear and nonlinear reconstruction algorithms),  FMT instrumentations (including time-domain, frequency-domain, and  continuous-wave domain systems), and implementation of image-enhancing  schemes (including both software and hardware approaches). Further  chapters examine multimodal approaches combining photoacoustic  tomography (PAT), computed tomography (CT), single-photon emission  tomography (SPECT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and discuss  bioluminescence tomography and miniaturized FMT from hand-held to  endoscopic FMT. A final chapter looks at clinical applications and  animal studies. This authoritative and practical guide will serve as a  valuable reference for researchers, scientists, clinicians, and industry  professionals.
The first book dedicated to fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT);
Covers underlying principles and practical applications;
Written by a leading FMT research pioneer and expert.
