Diagnostic imaging (None)

Diagnostic imaging encompasses a wide array of non-invasive technologies, such as X-ray, computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and others, which allow physicians to obtain visual representations of internal body structures and functions[1][3][5][7][9]. These tools are essential in modern medicine for disease detection, diagnosis, monitoring, and guiding treatments. While diagnostic imaging can use contrast agents or radiotracers that interact with biological tissues, "diagnostic imaging" itself is not a molecular target, but rather a category of technologies that visualize anatomical and sometimes functional or molecular processes. In summary: "Diagnostic imaging" is not a molecular target but refers to clinical imaging technologies and modalities. The use of this term as a therapeutic target is incorrect, and structured information relevant to molecular or receptor-based drug targeting does not apply.
