A Window on the Lung: Molecular Imaging as a Tool to Dissect Pathophysiologic Mechanisms of Acute Lung Disease

Figure 1

Positron emission tomography image representing pulmonary [¹⁸F]FDG activity 4 hours after unilateral cotton smoke inhalation to the left lung of a sheep (positioned on the right side in the figure). Note higher activity in the smoke exposed than in the control lung. Reproduced from Musch et al (Reference [34]).
