Microdosing enables better selections earlier in the drug development process. Microdosing is a new concept which may facilitate drug development process, and it is defined as the use of less 1/100th of the therapeutic dose of an investigated new drug. By labeling the drug molecule, microdosing studies may be performed either by investigating plasma/tissue samples with accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) [in some cases also using LC-MS-MS systems] or by in vivo radionuclide imaging methods (PET and SPECT).
