    Abstract A little over 30 years ago, Sir Godfrey Hounsfield and his colleagues revolutionized medical imaging by developing CT scanning. In recent years a combination of improved technology and a deeper understanding of tumour biology have led to the development of imaging based strategies aimed at interrogating tissue structure and function. The prospects of this new technology include the prediction of tumour response and the non-invasive study of conventionally inaccessible yet important pharmacological compartments. This article explores how functional nuclear MRI and spectroscopy have been used in predicting response to anticancer therapy in rectal cancers and to assess the biliary excretion of chemotherapeutics.

    Abstract The imaging of angiogenesis in human disease represents an exciting prospect for those involved in the drug development process. With an increasing focus on the therapeutic modulation of angiogenesis in man, the development of technologies capable of monitoring angiogenic drug interventions non-invasively should be welcomed.

    Abstract Despite the essential role morphological imaging plays in the management of patients with malignancy, anatomical techniques are limited in their ability to report on tumour biology and behaviour. It has therefore been necessary to develop imaging techniques that integrate form and function to probe the micro and molecular environments of cancers. The role of clinical functional and molecular magnetic resonance imaging is discussed with an emphasis on pelvic malignancy. It is argued that the radiological sciences need to take a lead in translating molecular and functional imaging techniques into man. Imaging in support of drug development is suggested as a focus for that development.

    Abstract Cancer is a genetic disease that manifests in loss of normal cellular homeostatic mechanisms. The biology and therapeutic modulation of neoplasia occurs at the molecular level. An understanding of these molecular processes is therefore required to develop novel prognostic and early biomarkers of response. In addition to clinical applications, increased impetus for the development of such technologies has been catalysed by pharmaceutical companies investing in the development of molecular therapies. The discipline of molecular imaging therefore aims to image these important molecular processes in vivo. Molecular processes, however, operate at short length scales and concentrations typically beyond the resolution of clinical imaging. Solving these issues will be a challenge to imaging research. The successful implementations of molecular imaging in man will only be realised by the close co-operation amongst molecular biologists, chemists and the imaging scientists.

    Abstract Clinical imaging has the potential to provide key biomarkers to inform decision-making in drug development. There is considerable optimism that emerging functional imaging techniques will substantially add to the conventional morphological depiction of disease. The discovery, development and qualification of clinical imaging biomarkers remain a considerable undertaking. Once an imaging biomarker is developed, it must be implemented with a high degree of consistency to ensure the collection of robust clinical trial data. The aim of such a development and implementation process is to deliver sufficient confidence in an imaging biomarker to support "go/no-go" decisions made in a drug development programme. This article outlines the drug development process, with a focus on the current impact of clinical imaging on drug development and its probable future direction.

    Abstract Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) using small molecular weight gadolinium chelates enables noninvasive imaging characterization of tissue vascularity. Depending on the technique used, data reflecting tissue perfusion (blood flow, blood volume, mean transit time), microvessel permeability surface area product, and extracellular leakage space can be obtained. Insights into these physiological processes can be obtained from inspection of kinetic enhancement curves or by the application of complex compartmental modeling techniques. Combining morphologic and kinetic features can increase the accuracy of clinical diagnoses. Potential clinical applications include screening for malignant disease, lesion characterization, monitoring lesion response to treatment, and assessment of residual disease. Newer applications include prognostication, pharmacodynamic assessments of antivascular anticancer drugs, and predicting efficacy of treatment. For dynamic MRI to enter into widespread clinical practice, it will be necessary to develop standardized approaches to measurement and robust analysis approaches.
