Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The purpose of this article is to explore how molecular imaging techniques can be used as useful adjunts in the development of "nanomedicine" and in personalizing treatment of patients. The discussion focuses on in vivo applications at the whole organism level even though imaging can also play an important role in research at the cellular and subcellular level.
