Driven primarily by the widespread availability of various small-animal models of human diseases replicating accurately biological and biochemical processes in vivo, this is a relatively new yet rapidly expanding field that has excellent potential to become a powerful tool in biomedical research and drug development. In addition to being a powerful clinical tool, a number of imaging modalities including but not limited to CT, MRI, SPECT and PET are also used in small laboratory animal research to visualize and track certain molecular processes associated with diseases such as cancer, heart disease and neurological disorders in living small animal models of disease. In vivo small-animal imaging is playing a pivotal role in the scientific research paradigm enabling to understand human molecular biology and pathophysiology using, for instance, genetically engineered mice with spontaneous diseases that closely mimic human diseases.  . 606 $aPharmaceutical technology 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aMolecular biology 606 $aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21010 606 $aBiotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12002 606 $aMolecular Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B1700X 615 0$aPharmaceutical technology. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aMolecular biology. 615 14$aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology. 615 24$aBiotechnology. 615 24$aMolecular Medicine. 676 $a610 676 $a610.28 676 $a611.01816 676 $a615.19 702 $aZaidi$b Habib$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298314903321 996 $aMolecular Imaging of Small Animals$92539446 997 $aUNINA
