Molecular Imaging: Basic Approaches

摘要: Molecular imaging is a broad, multidisciplinary field that aims to discover and apply novel molecules (probes) methods image normal pathological biological processes on cellular molecular level in vivo. One might think of as performing histology pathology without harming the subject. The probes target specific cells, molecules, or events are equivalent stains antibodies used pathology. technologies provide means visualize these report vivo processes. In this chapter, we cover basic concepts show both advantages disadvantages different approaches. Many techniques can be readily preclinical trials study efficacy drug.
