Metabolic imaging
Metabolic imaging observes changes in metabolic pathways to help detect medical conditions. In addition to diagnosis, metabolic imaging can be used to evaluate therapeutic response to assist in treatment management. Metabolic imaging can be done with a variety of non-invasive techniques including positron emission tomography (PET) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
