Abstract

Although PET imaging has been used for decades to evaluate enzyme activity in various tissues, its use for either inflammation or gene expression imaging is very new. Despite current limitations, PET imaging is likely to be invaluable as a tool to detect and quantify both inflammation and transgene expression noninvasively in the lungs and other organs.
