Topics covered in the book include stem cell sources, tumor specificity, targeted therapeutics, visualizing the stem cell, and therapeutic agent pharmacokinetics. Each chapter contains a brief introduction to the cancer, followed by an exploration of how engineered stem cells have been utilized to cure the disease in mouse models and in early phase clinical trials.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eComprises of sections on stem cell therapy in brain cancers, lung cancers, breast cancers, as well as stem cells in combination with other therapies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFocuses on the practical applications of using stem cells as gene delivery agents to treat cancer\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes coverage of cutting-edge molecular imaging techniques in stem cell therapeutics for a variety of tumour types\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKhalid Shah\u003c\/strong\u003e, MS, PhD is an Associate Professor of Neurology and Radiology at Massachusetts General Hospital Harvard Medical School, where he also directs the Molecular Neurotherapy and Imaging Lab and the Stem Cell Imaging and Therapeutics Program.
