Imaging is critical to proper care for many cancer patients. The ability to see what is occurring in human tissues and at the cellular and molecular levels provides critical information for physicians and scientists to successfully detect, diagnose, evaluate, treat and manage cancer. Scientific efforts to peer into the body date back to more than a century ago.
