Zusammenfassung:This application is related to U.S. Ser. No. 07/694,321 (abandoned); U.S. Ser. No. 07/694,157, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,240,693; and U.S. Ser. No. 07/694,151, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,399,338; all entirely incorporated by reference herein. Biomodulators, optionally linked to imaging-active moieties, can be administered to a host to enhance images thereof, e.g., NMR-, X-ray- or radio-images, preferably by increasing aberrant tissue signal intensity. Biomodulators can also condition tissue to enhance up-take of otherwise non-specific imaging agents. When linked to drugs, biomodulators can target the same to particular sites in the body.
