Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Inflammation was described as early as 4000 BC in an Egyptian papyrus and is still a common problem despite continuous advancements in prevention and treatment methods. Over the years new strains of microorganisms causing infections appear such as the recently discovered new Covid-19 infection. The proper diagnosis and delineation of the site and extent of inflammation are crucial to the clinical management of infection and for monitoring the response to therapy. The strategy to reach diagnosis by imaging depends on understanding the pathophysiologic basis of different types of infection and the mechanisms of accumulation of the radiotracers for scintigraphic diagnosis.
