Noninvasive cardiovascular imaging techniques for basic science research: application to cellular therapeutics.
Cell therapy continues to be an active area of basic science research with early promise in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, there are many unknowns including the mechanisms by which they work, the most useful cell types, the most efficient delivery strategies, and their safety. Noninvasive imaging provides a wide array of tools to quantitatively address many of these unknowns...
متن کاملImaging Cellular Proliferation in Prostate Cancer with Positron Emission Tomography
Prostate cancer remains a major public health problem worldwide. Imaging plays an important role in the assessment of disease at all its clinical phases, including staging, restaging after definitive therapy, evaluation of therapy response, and prognostication. Positron emission tomography with a number of biologically targeted radiotracers has been demonstrated to have potential diagnostic and...
متن کاملMultiscale Framework for Imaging Radiolabeled Therapeutics.
The resistance of a tumor to a drug is the result of bulk properties of the tumor tissue as well as phenotypic variations displayed by single cells. Here, we show that radioisotopic detection methods, commonly used for tracking the tissue distribution of drug compounds, can be extended to the single-cell level to image the same molecule over a range of physical scales. The anticancer drug ritux...
متن کاملBRAIN: innovative neurotechnologies for imaging and therapeutics
Conceived with the aim of meeting the needs of the neurobiology and clinical communities, the Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Technologies (BRAIN) Initiative builds on the lessons learned from major projects in genetics, such as the Human Genome Project. It concentrates on the use of new imaging technologies in conjunction with genomics to inform therapeutic decisions.
متن کاملMolecular Imaging in Experimental Therapeutics of Cancer
The increasing development of novel gene and targeted therapies for treating tumors has necessitated the development of imaging approaches to determine their efficacy in preclinical animal models. This overview will provide selected examples of using imaging for quantitating tumor cell kill (anatomical and diffusion MRI), early treatment-induced changes in tumor cellularity/metabolism (diffusio...
