Molecular Imaging I

Pharmacology of Neurotransmitter Release

Handbook of Neurochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology

This book provides an up to date review of molecular imaging and discusses basic methodological aspects necessary for the interpretation of experimental and clinical results. It emphasizes the interplay of imaging technology and probe development.

It has been known for half a century that neurotransmitters are released in preformed quanta, that the quanta represent transmitter-storing vesicles, and that release occurs by exocytosis.

The focus of this book is twofold. In the first part, the molecular events of exocytosis are analysed.

This includes a discussion of presynaptic calcium channels, the core proteins of the secretory machinery, and the actions of clostridial toxins and a -latrotoxin, famous for their potency as well as their crucial role in the elucidation of the steps of exocytosis.

The collection of systems represented in the Sourcebook of Models for Biomedical Research reflect the diversity and utility of models that are used in biomedicine. That utility is based on the consideration that observations made in particular organisms will provide insight into the workings of other, more complex systems. Some models have the advantage that the reproductive, mitotic, development or aging cycles are rapid compared with those in humans; others are utilized because individual proteins may be studied in an advantageous way and have human homologs.

Clinical MRI of the Abdomen

Foreword by: A. L. Baert

Why,How,When

Since the first edition of Pediatric Uroradiology, very significant advances have been made in the imaging and treatment of common and important pediatric urologic disorders such as vesicoureteric reflux, urinary tract infection, and upper urinary tract dilatation. This revised and extended version takes full account of the sometimes dramatic changes. It describes in detail all aspects of pediatric uroradiology, embracing both recent developments and established concepts. New chapters have been added, for example on genetics in nephrourology and clinical management of important nephrourologic disorders.

This volume focuses on the most recent progress in the field to explain why, when and how abdominal MRI should be used. Detailed chapters discuss MRI of the various solid and hollow viscera of the abdomen, each concluding with useful “pearls and pitfalls.”
