  • contacting the organism to be imaged with a compound of the formula;

    embedded imagewherein;

    A=N, C;

    B=H, hydroxy, halogen, acyl(C1-C6), alkyl alkoxy(C1-C6) D=O, S, NH2;

    E=H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, alkoxy, substituted alkoxy, halogen, or any substituent which is readily cleaved in the body to generate H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, alkoxy, substituted alkoxy, or halogen;

    at least one of W, X, Y, Z is a label or a label containing moiety having sufficient isotopic activity for imaging and the remainder of W, X, Y, Z=H, hydroxy, halogen, alkyl(C1-C6) substituted alkyl(C1-C6), alkoxy(C1-C6), substituted alkoxy(C1-C6);
