Multimodal imaging can be used to study various tissue parameters in cancer and gain insights into tumor physiology. This work explores the feasibility of using multimodal MRI/optoacoustic image coregistration and hybrid imaging for non‐invasive molecular imaging of glucose uptake in an orthotopic glioblastoma mouse model. Analogous to PET/CT and PET/MRI configurations, MSOT/MRI imaging can be used to acquire coregistered molecular/functional/anatomical information, thereby improving tumor detection and characterization. Further details can be found in the article by Amalina Binte Ebrahim Attia et al. on pp. 701–708 .
