Perspectives of contrast agents in ten years

  • 86 Accesses

Abstract

While it’s quite easy to extrapolate technical developments linearly, predictions are difficult to make when the old ways of thinking and existing paradigms suddenly aren’t any more adequate. Exciting new approaches suddenly occur making predictions about the future obsolete: in diagnostic radiology the introduction of X-rays, digital subtraction techniques, metabolic imaging in nuclear medicine and cross-sectional imaging in general have constituted such sudden drifts.
