Abstract

Positron emission tomography (PET) provides quantitative information in vivo with ultra-high sensitivity but is limited by its relatively low spatial resolution. Therefore, PET has been combined with other imaging modalities, and commercial systems such as PET/computed tomography (CT) and PET/magnetic resonance (MR) have become available. Inspired by the emerging field of nanomedicine, many PET-based multimodality nanoparticle imaging agents have been developed in recent years. This Minireview highlights recent progress in the design of PET-based multimodality imaging nanoprobes with an aim to overview the major advances and key challenges in this field and substantially improve our knowledge of this fertile research area.
