Advancements in Cancer Care by Exploring Multimodality Imaging Techniques and their Applications

Sep 23, 2026

Advancements in multimodality imaging have significantly improved cancer diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient management. This review examines how integrated imaging modalities such as MRI, CT, and PET, together with emerging radiomics and AI, can characterize tumors more comprehensively. Combining imaging data with laboratory tests supports more accurate cancer staging and personalized therapeutic strategies. Noninvasive, image-guided interventions and screening-based early detection show promise for lowering mortality and treatment side effects. The review emphasizes cross-industry collaboration and future interdisciplinary progress.

INTRODUCTION Cancer is a diverse and intricate disease driven by the unchecked growth and migration of abnormal cells (Fig. 1) . These cellular abnormalities originate from genetic mutations that interfere with the stringent control mechanisms governing cell division and differentiation [1] . As these mutations accumulate, cells lose their ability to regulate proliferation and adhesion, resulting in the development of tumors and the potential for metastasis, the spread of cancerous cells to distant locations throughout the body [2].
