Functional Imaging of Physiological Processes by Positron Emission Tomography

Gerrit Westera and P. August Schubiger

Center for Radiopharmaceutical Sciences, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, University Hospital Zurich, CH-8091 Zurich; and Paul Scherrer Institute, CH-5232 Villigen PSI, Switzerland
Tracer technology makes it possible to observe physiological and biochemical processes in the living organism in a dynamic mode. Positron emission tomography adds the use of chemically unchanged biomolecules and of quantification. This opens up fascinating possibilities for both fundamental research and routine diagnostic applications.
