Methods for molecular and cellular imaging with contrast-enhanced ultrasound have been developed that rely on the targeting of microbubbles or other acoustically active particles to disease-related molecules. These contrast agents are retained specifically in diseased tissue and can be imaged by high-sensitivity and high-resolution imaging algorithms currently available on the...
Molecular imaging draws on expertise from many fields, ranging from basic physics or chemistry to clinical practice. The National Institutes of Health included molecular imaging as a part of the NIH Roadmap to Biomedical Research. There has been increased funding for molecular imaging research, resulting in exciting new developments representing...
Molecular MRI mMRI is a special implementation of molecular imaging for the noninvasive visualization of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. More specifically, mMRI comprises the contrast agent-mediated alteration of tissue relaxation times for the detection and localization of molecular disease markers (such as cell surface receptors, enzymes,...
Modern imaging systems such as CT, SPECT, PET, MRI, ultrasound, and others generate a continuously growing amount of clinical and preclinical data every day - easily reaching terabytes in short time periods. In addition, the multiinstitutional and multidisciplinary nature of today's clinical research projects requires the creation of collaborative data...
Until recently, many physicians solely associated molecular imaging with imaging technologies like PET, SPECT, ultrasound, or MRI. But to leaders in the field, it has come to mean much more. Today, molecular imaging is revolutionizing everything from drug discovery and preclinical studies of disease to clinical research and daily medical...
In association with Ralph Weissleder's group at the Center for Molecular Imaging Research CMIR, Siemens Medical Solutions is developing the Molecular Imaging Portal MIPortal. This reliable, web-based software provides access to multimodality image data and nonimage data, like genomics. All data is organized in projects and experiments with secure access...
Advances in molecular biology and biochemistry have dramatically increased one's understanding of disease. The evolving perceptions that molecular mechanisms are the pathogenic basis of disease is changing modern medicine. New drugs often inhibit specific key pathways. In nuclear medicine, molecular imaging agents have been used for years, but most contrast...
