Core Tip |
In this study, we explored the important role of molecular imaging methods including single-photon emission computed tomography, positron emission tomography, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, photoacoustic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging in gastrointestinal cancers (GIC). These techniques require a forward-looking attitude and clear objectives, which will ultimately guarantee the efficient utilization of these promising tools for identifying GIC characteristics, assessing treatment effectiveness, and providing guidance for therapy and monitoring. By incorporating these sophisticated imaging and molecular technologies into the therapeutic process, medical professionals can customize treatment approaches for each patient, track the effectiveness of treatment, and make well-informed choices on ongoing care. |
