A novel strain of influenza A (H1N1) virus emerged and an outbreak of
influenza A (H1N1) occurred worldwide in 2009 and 2010, posing a severe
threat to the health of human beings. The two Editors work together in
Beijing You An Hospital, to combat this type of influenza. This book,
Radiology of Influenza A (H1N1), is intended to provide first-hand
clinical data and its scientific analysis, thus supporting sound
clinical practice for influenza A (H1N1) prevention and treatment as
well as related scientific research.
The authors have collected over 100 critical influenza A (H1N1)
virus-infected cases. For cases of influenza A (H1N1) that resulted in
death, autopsies were performed for 8 cases after receiving their
families' informed consent. Over 200 reports on pathological and
histological analysis as well as immunohistochemical and electroscopic
analysis were brought together. This book was then compiled by comparing
the published data with the present first-hand data.
This book includes a wealth of content, including DR, CT and MRI images,
pathological and histological figures, and immunohistochemical and
electroscopic figures. Related research, clinical and educational needs
can be readily satisfied by its detailed data, texts and figures, as
well as typical case reports.
