Imaging biomarker

An imaging biomarker is a visible or measurable feature observed through medical imaging techniques, like MRI or CT scans, that provides information about a person's health or disease state. It helps doctors detect, monitor, or predict disease progression by highlighting specific changes in tissues or organs. For example, a tumor's size or appearance on an MRI can serve as an imaging biomarker, guiding treatment decisions. These biomarkers enhance diagnostic accuracy and allow for more personalized and effective healthcare management based on detailed imaging data.
