Over the past few decades great strides have been made in anatomical imaging of disease that has lead to their diagnosis with minimal invasion. Despite these advances, disease like cancer continues to take one human life every minute in the USA alone. Complimentary approaches that pertain directly to the genesis of the disease might contribute to its early diagnosis and subsequent management. In cancer, an array of molecular abnormalities leading to the modulations in expression of key proteins important in the cellular signaling pathways and cell proliferation has been identified. These specific disease fingerprints, biomarkers, are over expressed on malignant cell surfaces or within the cytoplasm and provide unique targets and promise to improve cancer diagnosis and therapy. We, among others, have designed, synthesized, and evaluated some novel probes specific for those oncogenes and oncogene product biomarkers for PET and SPECT molecular imaging of certain types of cancers. This article briefly describes this approach and gives specific examples which depict the ability of molecular imaging to detect occult lesions not detectable by current scintigraphic approaches. The article also outlines a few examples predicting other possible applications of targeting such specific probes not yet utilized.
