Imaging of infection and inflammation provides a classic example of radiology and nuclear medicine’s strengths as well as weaknesses in the discovery and diagnosis of disease. Fortunately, the weaknesses are subsiding as new studies and techniques point to better planning and precision in the use of single and combined imaging modalities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDiagnostic Imaging of Infections and Inflammatory Diseases: A Multidisciplinary Approach\u003c\/i\u003e deals with the very latest developments in the use of radiologic techniques and modalities in the management of patients with a host of infectious and inflammatory diseases.
