Abstract

The biosafety of micro-/nanoimaging probes is one of the most important elements that should be taken into consideration before their design and fabrication. In order to endow them specificity to lesions and bioavailability in vivo, targeting biomolecules, optimized biodistribution, and acceptable biocompatibility need to be introduced. These prerequisites ensure their behavior in the body and pave the way for their ultimate medical applications in humans, which should be pursued throughout the development of molecular imaging probes.
