Abstract

Inflammation is a complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, with the intention to eliminate the cause of injury, protect from further damage, and initiate tissue repair. Inflammation is a rather generic term that covers a broad range of types of responses which, depending on the causal stimulus and subsequent actions, involve pathogenic cells, stromal cells, and cells of the innate and adaptive immune system, in varying composition (Figs. 7.1 and 7.2). However, common to all inflammatory conditions is the delicate balance between too little or too severe and inappropriate timing or duration, all of which can lead to progressive tissue destruction. For example, chronic inflammation may lead to a host of diseases, such as autoimmune diseases and even cancer [1]. Thus, inflammation is a highly dynamic and tightly regulated process that demands metabolic reprogramming of the involved cell types at various stages to respond with appropriate cell numbers and cell types. In this chapter, we will discuss how imaging can play a role in the assessment of inflammation and immune metabolism. We propose a simplified five-step model to indicate the potential targets for imaging in the ensuing immune response, while acknowledging that these simplified steps are iterative and overlapping in practice.
