Abstract:
Angiogenesis is a key cancer hallmark involved in tumor growth and metastasis development. Angiogenesis and tumor microenvironment significantly influence the response of tumors to therapies. Imaging techniques have changed our understanding of the process of angiogenesis, the resulting vascular performance, and the tumor microenvironment. This article reviews the status and potential clinical value of the imaging modalities used to assess the status of tumor vasculature in vivo, before, during, and after treatment.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
