Abstract

Amaç: Moleküler görüntüleme yöntemleri klinik ve preklinik alanlarda popülerlik kazanmaktadır. Bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT), pozitron emisyon tomografisi (PET), tek foton emisyon tomografisi (SPECT), manyetik rezonans (MRI) ve yakın kızılötesi floresans (NIRF) görüntüleme gibi birçok farklı görüntüleme yöntemi vardır ve her birinin farklı avantaj ve dezavantajları vardır. Bu moleküler görüntüleme yöntemlerinin dezavantajlarının üstesinden gelmek için iki veya daha fazla moleküler görüntüleme yönteminin bir kombinasyonu olan multimodal görüntüleme yöntemleri geliştirilmiştir. Bununla birlikte, bu görüntüleme yöntemleri, kullanılan multimodal görüntüleme yöntemlerini geliştirmek için farklı vektörlerle konjuge edilmiştir. Bu alanda görüntüleme yöntemlerinden kaynaklanan bazı dezavantajların üstesinden gelmek için multimodal görüntüleme yöntemlerinin konjugasyonunda ilaç taşıyıcı sistemler, peptitler, proteinler, antikorlar ve aptamerler yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu derlemede PET ve NIRF kombinasyonlu görüntüleme modaliteleri anlatılmış ve daha spesifik olarak PET ve NIRF nanoparçacık ikili görüntüleme yöntemleri artıları ve eksileri ile incelenmiştir.
Sonuç ve Tartışma: İkili görüntüleme yöntemleri, tek görüntüleme yöntemlerinin sınırlarını ortadan kaldırır ve biyolojik, anatomik ve fizyolojik süreçlerin daha iyi anlaşılmasını sağlar. Çoklu görüntüleme yöntemleri birkaç dezavantajı olmasına rağmen, düşük maliyet ve toksisite ile birlikte daha yüksek hassasiyet, çözünürlük ve özgüllük sunar.

NANOPARTICLES FOR DUAL IMAGING: PET AND FLUORESCENCE IMAGING

Abstract

Objective: Molecular imaging methods are gaining popularity in clinical and preclinical fields. There are many different imaging methods such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF), and each has different advantages and disadvantages. Multimodal imaging methods, a combination of two or more molecular imaging modalities, have been developed to overcome the disadvantages of these molecular imaging methods. However, these imaging methods are conjugated with different vectors to improve the multimodal imaging methods used. In this field, drug delivery systems, peptides, proteins, antibodies and aptamers have been widely used for conjugation of multimodal imaging modalities to overcome some of the disadvantages that come from imaging modalities. In this review, PET and NIRF combination imaging modalities were explained and more specifically PET and NIRF nanoparticle dual imaging modalities with their pros and cons were investigated.
Result and Discussion: Dual imaging modalities overcome to limitations of single imaging modalities and provide a better understanding of biological, anatomical, and physiological processes. Multimodal imaging modalities offer higher sensitivity, resolution, and specificity with
lower cost and toxicity although have several disadvantages.
