The cutting-edge guide on advancing the science ofmolecular imaging using nanoparticles
Nanoplathform-Based Molecular Imaging provides rationale forusing nanoparticle-based probes for molecular imaging, thendiscusses general strategies for this underutilized, yet promising,technology. It addresses general strategies of particle synthesisand surface chemistry, applications in computed tomography opticalimaging, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, multimodalityimaging, theranostics, and finally, the clinical perspectives ofnanoimaging. This comprehensive volume summarizes the opinions ofthose in the forefront of research and describes the latestdevelopments by emphasizing fundamentals and initiating hands-onapplication.

Xiaoyuan Chen received his PhD in chemistry from the University of Idaho and was an Associate Professor of Radiology in the School of Medicine at Stanford University before joining the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), National Institutes of Health (NIH) as a senior investigator and the Laboratory of Molecular Imaging and Nanomedicine (LOMIN) as chief. He is the author of more than 200 scholarly articles and has edited one book to date. Dr. Chen's research interests include developing and validating novel molecular imaging probes (nanoparticles, antibodies, proteins, peptides, and small organic molecules) for better understanding of the biology, early diagnosis of disease, monitoring therapy response, and guiding drug discovery and development.
