Introduction to the Stepwise Development of Imaging Biomarkers

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Imaging Biomarkers

Abstract

Since the beginning of radiology, its traditional goal was to provide images of the highest quality to allow the most accurate diagnoses [30]. This goal has changed. Clinical radiologists must now incorporate biological development and preclinical research into a clinical reality. The use of imaging measurements in individual patients improves the main clinical outcomes, such as depicting abnormalities, predicting prognosis, staging diseases, and defining follow-up outcomes. Radiologists may hereby engage patients and physicians into new approaches to facilitate decision-making for personalized care [12].
