Aerosols in Medicine: Principles, Diagnosis and Therapy

Leading investigators in the medical aerosol field review the current state of the art, detail the increasingly important application of aerosols in diagnosis, and discuss the assessment of environmental and occupational aerosols. This edition updates and extends the first edition of 1985 to reflect the increasing knowledge of inhalation aerosols and new applications of aerosols in medicine over the last few years. Several chapters have been added on the diagnostic and therapeutic use of aerosols, and new chapters are included on systemic therapy with aerosols, and particle size analysis of therapeutic aerosols.
