Abstract:
The concept and principles of molecular imaging and the difference between molecular imaging and traditional medical imaging are introduced.The important value of molecular imaging in early diagnosis and treatment of disease is described,and the great significance of molecular imaging for human health is also discussed.Following the main line,that is the three main factors of molecular imaging such as molecular probe,signal amplification and probe technology,the present situation and development for clinical application and basic research of nuclear medicine molecular imaging,magnetic resonance molecular imaging and optical molecular imaging are analyzed comprehensively.The development prospects of molecular imaging in some major research areas and the difficult problems are also pointed out.
