The role of molecuclar imaging in modern drug development
Publication . Cunha, Lídia Alexandra dos Santos
Drug development represents a highly complex, inefficient and costly process. Over the last decade, the widespread use of nuclear imaging, due to its functional and molecular nature, has proven to be determinant in improving the efficiency on selecting the candidate drugs that should be abandoned or move forward to clinical. This reflects not only into the development of safer and effective drugs, but also the shortening of time-to-market. The modern concept and future trends concerning molecular imaging is assumedly hybrid or multimodality imaging, including combinations between high sensitivity and functional (molecular) modalities with high spatial resolution and morphological techniques
