Imaging tissue repair: Molecular imaging techniques and their role in the characterisation of tissue repair processes

Pither RJ

Medical imaging techniques have been in routine clinical use across many different diseases for the better part of 100 years. During this time, there has been a trend towards progressively greater sensitivity of detection and improved image resolution. The advent of the true molecular imaging techniques of PET (Positron Emission Tomography), SPECT (Single Photon Emission Tomography) and Optical imaging, is now enabling the visualization of biological processes at the cellular ...
