Molecular Neuroradiology

Molecular neuroradiology is a specialized field that combines imaging techniques, like MRI and PET scans, with molecular biology to better understand brain disorders. It focuses on identifying specific biological markers related to diseases such as tumors, Alzheimer's, and multiple sclerosis. By examining these molecular signals, doctors gain insights into the nature and progression of the disease, which can help tailor treatments and improve patient outcomes. Essentially, it enhances traditional brain imaging by integrating detailed biological information, allowing for a more precise diagnosis and targeted therapy.
