Molecular Imaging in Oncology

  • Chapter
Molecular Nuclear Medicine

Abstract

A first draft of the human genome has been completed (Pennisi 2000) and, while much work remains to complete a refined map, this accomplishment is expected to lead to new medical treatments, drugs, and ultimately cures previously thought impossible. In this emerging “post-genomic era”, wherein functionality will be added to this vast array of genetic information, opportunity exists for imaging to play a significant role in both basic and translational research as related to functional genomics. Herein, the overall objective is focused on adding function through molecular imaging. Molecular imaging is broadly defined as the characterization and measurement of biological processes in living animals, model systems and humans at the cellular and molecular level using remote imaging detectors. The goal is to advance our understanding of biology and medicine through noninvasive in vivo investigation of cellular and molecular events involved in normal and pathologic processes.
