Abstract
- As the number of detected extrasolar planetary systems has steadily grown over the past five years, so too has the number of circumstellar disks with resolved images. In this contribution, I take stock of the current inventory of disk images at various wavelengths; summarize the results of a new disk imaging survey conducted with the Hubble Space Telescope; review the major inferences that can be drawn about disk structure from the extant images; and suggest areas for future progress.
