The development of new drugs for treating difficult diseases, such as cancer requires extensive expenditure, in addition to consuming a lot of time. The first step in designing a new drug involves the utilizing high-throughput screening of large chemical libraries for identifying compounds that can provide the requisite therapeutic effect. The capability of visualizing biological activity at the cellular level has constituted a strategic component in drug discovery, and adding automation and high-volume screening methods has enabled in testing compounds in large numbers. The field of pharmaceutical research is being provided considerable impetus through the combination of imaging and screening.
