The most recent research developments in nuclear medicine and molecular imaging were presented at the 2010 Annual Congress of the EANM. This review summarizes some of the most relevant contributions made in the fields of oncology, cardiovascular science, neurology and psychiatry, technological innovation and novel tracers. Presentations covered basic and clinical research in nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, and diagnostic and therapeutic applications of radioisotopes and radiopharmaceuticals on a global scale. The results reported demonstrate that investigative strategies using nuclear medicine techniques facilitate effective diagnosis and management of patients with most prevalent disease states. At the same time novel tracers and technologies are being explored, which hold promise for future new applications of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging in research and clinical practice.
核医学和分子影像学的最新研究进展在 2010 年 EANM 年会上进行了展示。本综述总结了肿瘤学、心血管科学、神经病学和精神病学、技术创新和新型示踪剂等领域的一些最相关的贡献。会议涵盖了核医学和分子影像学的基础和临床研究，以及放射性同位素和放射性药物在全球范围内的诊断和治疗应用。报告的结果表明，使用核医学技术进行的研究策略有助于对大多数常见疾病状态的患者进行有效诊断和治疗。与此同时，也在探索新型示踪剂和技术，它们有望为核医学和分子影像学在研究和临床实践中的未来新应用带来前景。
