Summary

Over the last two decades, molecular imaging has been established as a valuable technology, aiming at visualization and characterization of biochemical processes on a molecular level in isolated cells, tissues and higher organisms. Within the wide scope of the various imaging techniques, dual-labelled modalities for nuclear (PET, SPECT) and near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging show promise owing to their comparable detection sensitivity. Novel materials offer excellent prospects for the development of new non-invasive strategies of early diagnosis and efficient monitoring of therapeutic treatments. In the field of cancer medicine, the combination of different imaging techniques such as PET/SPECT and OI for tracking down tumours and metastases, and subsequent image-guided surgery for tumour resection is particularly attractive.

This review focuses on the development of promising dual-labelled agents to be applied in bimodal nuclear/optical imaging, combining radionuclides and fluorescent dyes. The discussion encompasses modular ligands as well as nanoscale systems, including antibodies and their fragments.

Zusammenfassung

Die molekulare Bildgebung hat sich in den vergangenen 20 Jahren als eine wertvolle Technik zum Verfolgen und zur Charakterisierung biochemischer Prozesse auf molekularer Ebene in isolierten Zellen, Geweben und höheren Organismen etabliert. Innerhalb des breiten Spektrums der verschiedenen Bildgebungsmodalitäten sind bimodale Systeme für die nukleare (PET, SPECT) und Nah-Infrarot-Fluoreszenz (NIRF)-Bildgebung von besonderem Interesse; dies vor allem aufgrund ihrer vergleichbaren Nachweisempfindlichkeit. Hier werden in den nächsten Jahren deutliche Fortschritte u.a. auf dem Gebiet der Krebsdiagnostik und Therapiekontrolle erwartet. Besonders attraktiv ist die Möglichkeit, die nichtinvasive Bildgebung mit der Fluoreszenz-gestützten Chirurgie zur Tumorentfernung zu kombinieren.

Dieser Übersichtsartikel stellt aussichtsreiche Systeme auf der Basis von modularen Liganden sowie nanoskaligen Materialien einschließlich von Antikörpern sowie deren Fragmenten vor, die Radionuklide und Fluoreszenzfarbstoffe enthalten und damit in der bimodalen nuklearen und optischen Bildgebung eingesetzt werden können.
