From Morphological Imaging to Molecular Targeting

"From Morphological Imaging to Molecular Targeting," published by Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG in 2004, is an insightful exploration into the advancements of molecular medicine. This hardback edition, comprising 196 pages, delves into the identification of numerous new and often human-specific drug targets. The book emphasizes the critical need for early in vivo validation of specific ligands that bind to these targets in humans. Such validation is essential for evaluating their potential applications in targeted imaging and radiotherapy. This work is a must-read for professionals and researchers looking to understand the intersection of imaging technology and molecular targeting in modern medicine.
