4. Molecular imaging contrast agents

4.1 Physico-chemical characterization of tissues with "intelligent" agents

The future of contrast agents is moving towards a so-called "intelligent" category, i.e. capable of non-invasively visualizing molecular events at the cellular level in vivo, and enabling physico-chemical characterization of tissues (pH, pO 2 , T, ion concentration, metabolite concentration, enzymatic activity, etc.) . This type of imaging is known as molecular imaging. Here are just a few examples of these responsive...
