Molecular Imaging in Neuroradiology: Exploring the Cellular Basis of Brain Disorders
Received Date: Dec 04, 2023 / Published Date: Dec 30, 2023
Abstract
Molecular imaging has emerged as a transformative tool in neuroradiology, offering a unique perspective into the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying brain disorders. This abstract explores the significance of molecular imaging techniques such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS), and Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) in unraveling the complexities of neurological conditions. By visualizing and quantifying biochemical processes, molecular imaging contributes to early diagnosis, treatment monitoring, and a deeper understanding of Alzheimer's disease, brain tumors, epilepsy, and other neurological disorders. Despite challenges such as the availability of suitable radiotracers, radiation exposure, and cost, ongoing research holds promise for addressing these limitations and expanding the scope of molecular imaging applications. The integration of molecular imaging in neuroradiology marks a significant leap towards precision medicine, fostering advancements in personalized treatment strategies and enhancing our comprehension of the cellular basis of brain disorders.
