Scope & Mission of Molecular Imaging
Molecular Imaging is dedicated to the publication of studies which
combine recent advances in noninvasive imaging modalities with molecular
and cellular biology in order to improve our understanding of normal and
disease processes.
Studies of intact living organisms may be at the human, animal, cellular
or molecular level which advance our understanding of biological events
in living systems and how these events relate to normal and pathological
processes. Imaging modalities may include nuclear medicine techniques (SPECT
and PET) and non-nuclear techniques such as MRI, MRS, CT, ultrasound, intravital
microscopy, optical imaging and diffuse optical tomography and other methods
which elucidate molecular and cellular mechanisms, accelerate understanding
of biology, test efficacy of therapeutic interventions in intact living
systems and assess therapeutic outcomes.
Molecular Imaging accepts Research Articles, Brief Articles, Reviews,
and manuscripts reporting significant technological advances relevant to
imaging at the whole organism or cellular levels, which may for example,
involve genetic engineering of novel reporter genes or novel chemical probes
to visualize events in vivo.
The mission of Molecular Imaging is to provide a forum for bridging
the scientific exchange and interaction between molecular and cellular biologists
with imaging scientists in an effort to stimulate scientific advancements
in this important area of research. This journal will serve both the scientific
and clinical communities by disseminating novel results and concepts relevant
to the biological study of normal and disease processes in both basic and
translational studies ranging from mouse to man.
