Multimodality Imaging Agents with PET as the Fundamental Pillar

Positron emission tomography (PET) provides quantitative information in vivo with ultra-high sensitivity but is limited by its relatively low spatial resolution. Therefore, PET has been combined with other imaging modalities, and commercial systems such as PET/computed tomography (CT) and PET/magnetic resonance (MR) have become available. Inspired by the emerging field of nanomedicine, many PET-based multimodality nanoparticle imaging agents...
