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.
