Aiding researchers seeking to eliminate multi-step procedures, reduce delays in treatment and ease patient care, Cancer Theranostics reviews, assesses, and makes pertinent clinical recommendations on the integration of comprehensive in vitro diagnostics, in vivo molecular imaging, and individualized treatments towards the personalization of cancer treatment.

Cancer Theranostics describes the identification of novel biomarkers to advance molecular diagnostics of cancer. The book encompasses new molecular imaging probes and techniques for early detection of cancer, and describes molecular imaging-guided cancer therapy. Discussion also includes nanoplatforms incorporating both cancer imaging and therapeutic components, as well as clinical translation and future perspectives.

Supports elimination of multi-step approaches and reduces delays in treatments through combinatorial diagnosis and therapy Fully assesses cancer theranostics across the emergent field, with discussion of biomarkers, molecular imaging, imaging guided therapy, nanotechnology, and personalized medicine Content bridges laboratory, clinic, and biotechnology industries to advance biomedical science and improve patient management

Cancer Theranostics, Second Edition provide updates on new molecular imaging probes and techniques for early detection of cancer and describes molecular imaging-guided cancer therapy. Discussions also include nanoplatforms, incorporating both cancer imaging and therapeutic components, as well as clinical translation and future perspectives. New to this edition is the inclusion of recent developments and a streamlined structure that leads the reader through the content more intuitively, from problem to solution.

Bioimaging in life sciences is a burgeoning area that is of growing interest to today's professionals and researchers in the field. This is the first book that bridges the gap between biomedical imaging and the bioscience community. This unique resource gives professionals a detailed understanding of imaging platforms, fluorescence imaging, and fundamental image processing algorithms. Further, it guides readers through the application of advanced image analysis methods and techniques to specific biological problems. The book presents applications that span a wide range of scales, from the detection of signaling events in sub-cellular structures, to the automated analysis of tissue structures. Other critical areas discussed include the dynamics of cell populations and in vivo microscopy. A DVD is also included. It contains full-color images, movies and other valuable supplementary material that further illustrate topics discussed in the book.
