Radiopharmaceuticals as probes to characterize tumour tissue

摘要: Tumour cells exhibit several properties that allow them to grow and divide. A number of these are detectable by nuclear imaging methods. We discuss crucial tumour can be described current radioprobe technologies, further areas emerging development, finally articulate need our field should aspire develop. The review focuses largely on positron emission tomography draws upon the seminal ‘Hallmarks Cancer’ article Hanahan Weinberg in 2011 placing into context present future roles radiotracer characterizing tumours.
