Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Neoangiogenesis is essential for the growth of tumors, mainly in the case of solid and undifferentiated cancers. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast enhancement (ce) and new radiopharmaceutical agents for PET imaging can be useful to detect and also to monitor this pathophysiological process. This Special Issue aims to:

  • Define the role of MRI with ce and the role of other imaging technologies in evaluating the neoangiogenesis.
  • Assess the advantages of new radiopharmaceutical agents for monitoring the evaluation of response to new targeted therapies in tumors.
