Molecular Imaging Through Magnetic Resonance for Clinical Oncology

Molecular Imaging Through Magnetic Resonance for Clinical Oncology, 9781904602293 (1904602290), Cambridge University Press, 2005

Molecular imaging represents a new medical discipline that aims at uncovering molecular pathways of disease by integrating cellular and molecular biology with diagnostic imaging1,2. It encompasses several of the exciting imaging modalities that are capable of providing critical information for early detection and progression of disease, through its cellular and molecular pathways. Given the rapidly growing sophistication in our understanding of the cell biology of cancer, molecular imaging offers a strategic bridge to clinical oncology. It is of critical importance to non-invasively assess the behavior of tumor cells in their milieu, for which in vivo molecular imaging is a key methodology3. Moreover, in vivo molecular imaging detects not only the presence of the disease process, but can also quantify its extent and severity, as well as following the course of disease over time4. Thus, with respect to oncology, in addition to its proven diagnostic potential, molecular imaging is also vital to target definition for dose delivery in e.g. radiotherapy. Molecular imaging is also an invaluable tool used during and after
