In this issue of MRI Clinics, guest editors Prof. Minerva Becker and Dr. Valentino Garibotto bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Clinical Value of Hybrid PET/MRI. Combined PET/MRI has significant advantages over other imaging methods—a lesser radiation dose, excellent soft tissue contrast, numerous radiotracers available for PET, and more, making it a good choice for diagnostics and staging, as well as surgical planning. In this issue, top experts explore these advantages and more, helping you make the most of this relatively new dual-imaging modality in your practice. - Contains 10 relevant, practice-oriented topics including breast imaging using PET/MRI; abdominal imaging using PET/MRI; brain imaging using PET/MRI; musculoskeletal imaging using PET/MRI; PET/MRI in radiation therapy planning; pediatric imaging using PET/MRI; and more. - Provides in-depth clinical reviews on the clinical value of hybrid PET/MRI, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. - Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.

In order to complete tissue regeneration, various cells (neuronal, skeletal and smooth) interact coordinately with each other. This book, Muscle Cell and Tissue - Current Status of Research Field, deals with current progress and perspectives in a variety of topics on the skeletal and smooth muscle, stem cells, regeneration, disease or therapeutics. Novel applications for cell and tissue engineering including cell therapy, tissue models and disease pathology modeling are introduced. This book also deals with the differentiation/de-differentiation process of vascular smooth muscle cells in health and disease. Furthermore, natural products to reverse metabolic syndromes are descriptively reviewed. These chapters can be interesting for graduate students, teachers, physicians, executives and researchers in the field of molecular biology and regenerative medicine.
