Better anatomical visualisation and improved data analysis have improved survival rates. Through emerging functional, molecular and structural imaging modalities, better anatomical visualisation has been extended to cellular and molecular detail, improving diagnosis and management of diseases. This article reviews the advances made in emerging imaging modalities as well as their potential applications in targeted therapy.
