The Oncologic Imaging Program at ttie Siteman Cancer Center has a major goal of developing new imaging techniques, validating them in animal models of cancer, and translating them to patients. Examples of imaging techniques that have been developed and translated to patient studies are the imaging of receptors involved in breast and prostate cancer as well as imaging agents for measuring tumor cell growth and the oxygenation levels (hypoxia) of tumors. These agents will be used in patients both to diagnose tumors and to predict the preferred therapy for individual patients.
