During incidences and progress ofmany types of diseases hypoxia may enhance development and progress ofthe disease and, furthermore, decrease chances of efficient treatmentof, e.g., tumors. Hypoxic tumor cells are up to three times moreresistant towards radiation therapy than normoxic cells. With adiagnostic tool such as provided by hypoxia tracers suitable for PETand SPECT imaging, the particular tissue situation becomes detectableand, thus, treatable. Although the clinical importance of hypoxiaimaging is obviously great, to date neither the clinical nor thescientific community at an international level has focused manyresearch activities on the hypoxia problem. .As the result of a workshop held by the Section for Radiopharmacy inTübingen, this book collects observations and findings in orderto stimulate the on-going research resulting in important clinicalapplications. Hypoxia imaging is needed in areas of cardiology,neurology and oncology.
