Textbook of In Vivo Imaging in Vertebrates describes the new imaging techniques being developed to monitor physiological, cellular and subcellular function within living animals. This field of imaging science brings together physics, chemistry, engineering, biology and medicine to yield powerful and versatile imaging approaches. By combining advanced non-invasive imaging technologies with new mechanisms for visualizing biochemical events and protein and gene function, non-invasive vertebrate imaging enables the in vivo study of biology and offers rapid routes from basic discovery to drug development and clinical application. 388 p.
