Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a new application method of functional PET and MRI imaging for treatment of advanced resistant cancers based on the molecular imaging technique. Various aspects of tumor functions such as proliferation, hypoxia, changes in receptor-phenotype were delineated by the functional PET imaging methods as well as diffusion MRI. The multimodal tumor functional imaging provided useful information before treatment, and prognostic values and aggressiveness of the cancers were able to be estimated.
