ABSTRACT:
Biomodulators, optionally linked to imaging-active moieties, can be administered to a host to enhance images thereof, e.g., NMR-, X-ray- or radio-images, preferably by increasing aberrant tissue signal intensity. Biomodulators can also condition tissue to enhance uptake of otherwise non-specific imaging agents. When linked to drugs, biomodulators can target the same to particular sites in the body.
