Abstract
Biomodulators can be administered together with an agent such as a drug or an imaging agent (specific or non-specific) structurally modified to take advantage of perturbations of cell oligosaccharide displays caused by biomodulators, to enhance images of a host, e.g., NMR-, X-ray- or radioimages, preferably by increasing aberrant tissue signal intensity. Biomodulators condition tissue to enhance or otherwise modify up-take of the drug or structurally modified imaging agent.
