Molecular Imaging: Utilizing It as an Effective Drug Development Tool
Session Chair(s)
Todd E. Peterson, PhD
Director, Nuclear Imaging; Associate Prof., Radiology and Radiological Sciences
Vanderbilt University, United States
Molecular imaging (MI) can assist in the development of new drugs. It can provide MI biomarkers that can be utilized in trials as endpoints for clinical outcomes. In this session, we will discuss the development of MI biomarkers and their use in drug development.
Learning Objective : Explain the benefits of PET imaging in preclinical and clinical therapeutic drug development; Recognize applications for molecular imaging in drug development phases; Identify benefits and challenges in molecular imaging from probe development to standardization in multicenter trials.
