Recent common interest in molecular imaging among both diagnostic and interventional radiologists has led to the establishment of a concept that could be called interventional molecular imaging. This concept, by combining interventional radiology with molecular imaging, is aiming to fully apply the advantages of both imaging fields. Interventional radiology can extend the capabilities of currently available molecular imaging techniques to (a) reach deep-seated targets, (b) enable a close look at small targets, (c) precisely guide delivery of nontargeted imaging tracers or therapeutic agents, and (d) superselectively enhance the effectiveness of targeted imaging and treatment. Interventional molecular imaging is becoming one of the frameworks for bringing molecular imaging from benches and small-animal laboratories to large-animal suites and, ultimately, to certain clinical applications in humans.

近年来,诊断和介入放射科医生对分子成像都有着浓厚的兴趣,这导致了一个可以被称为介入分子成像的概念的建立。这个概念通过将介入放射学与分子成像相结合,旨在充分应用这两个成像领域的优势。介入放射学可以将目前可用的分子成像技术的功能扩展到:(a) 到达深部目标;(b) 能够近距离观察小目标;(c) 精确引导非靶向成像示踪剂或治疗剂的输送;以及 (d) 超选择性增强靶向成像和治疗的效果。介入分子成像正成为将分子成像从实验室和小动物实验推向大型动物实验,并最终应用于某些人体临床应用的框架之一。(c) RSNA, 2010.
