What Are the Challenges Associated with Molecular Imaging in Toxicology?
Despite its advantages, molecular imaging in toxicology faces several challenges. One primary challenge is the development of specific and sensitive imaging probes that can accurately target the molecules of interest. Additionally, the cost and complexity of imaging technologies may limit their accessibility in some research settings. Interpreting imaging data can also be complex, requiring advanced analytical techniques and expertise. Furthermore, the resolution of certain imaging modalities may not be sufficient to visualize small molecular changes, particularly in early stages of toxicant exposure.
