Topic
An overview is provided in this course about bioinorganic topics of chemistry, regarding the role of the different elements in medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry. Our aim is to offer a concise knowledge also about bioinorganic relations on medical contrast agents like X-ray, tomographic, MR and ultrasound contrast agents. The use of radionuclids in diagnostical methods will be discussed too.
