Abstract excerpt
Molecular nuclear medicine can image in vivo biochemistry. Studies with receptor-based radiopharmaceuticals provide windows to the biochemical processes of proteins as they carry out instructions from genetic coding. The patient's genotype determines this biochemical expression of phenotype. Radiotracer studies that visualize in vivo biochemistry provide a glimpse at a patient's "chemotype." Molecular nuclear...
