Abstract
Molecular imaging techniques such as PET with the leukocyte-targeted probe 89Zr-CD45 are promising tools for rheumatology, providing a non-invasive whole-body assessment of the mechanisms that drive tissue inflammation. These techniques could improve diagnosis and disease monitoring, but further research is required before clinical implementation.
