Opis

Written by world-renowned authorities, Functional Lung Imaging explores the use of state-of-the-art imaging modalities for the analysis of pulmonary function. It provides an up-to-date and global perspective of imaging applications and analyzes the most recently published studies. It illustrates the physiological basis of functional lung imaging and demonstrates its impact on the study of lung disease. It also provides practical tools for improved diagnostic and treatment practices, explores potential clinical applications of imaging technologies to various disease states, and focuses on management strategies for common clinical lung disorders.
