Abstract: Molecular imaging is a recently emerging biomedical discipline. Through the visual representation,characterization and quantification of biological processes at the cellular and molecular levels within intact living organisms, molecular imaging provides effective methods to deeply unravel the mechanism of physiological and pathological processes, detect and monitor diseases and their treatments in real-time, dynamic, subtle, non-invasive, targeting way. Promisingly, it can be predicted that the rapid development of molecular
imaging can lead to great changes of clinical medicine in the near future. In this review, molecular imaging and its applications are discussed.
Key words: molecular imaging; molecular probe; green fluorescent protein; quantum dots
