Why Molecular Imaging Matters

Molecular imaging is a type of medical imaging that provides detailed pictures of what is happening inside the body at the molecular and cellular level that allows physicians to see how the body is functioning and to measure its chemical and biological processes. Learn More

Get The Facts

Molecular imaging procedures that do not use radiation include magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound and optical imaging.

Get The Facts

Nuclear medicine uses very small amounts of radioactive materials, called radiopharmaceuticals or radiotracers, to diagnose and treat disease.

Get The Facts

Molecular imaging procedures are noninvasive and very safe. More than 20 million Americans benefit each year from nuclear medicine procedures used to diagnose and treat a wide variety of diseases.
