Summary: | Inherent in the application of advances in biomedical science to nuclear medicine is the concept of molecular targeting. Radioimmunoimaging and therapy can add a new dimension to diagnostic imaging and staging of head and neck cancer including metastasis, as well as eradication of disease.
