The next generation millimeter to submillimeter wavelength synthesis telescope, the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), is an excellent instrument for direct and indirect detection of extrasolar giant planets and imaging of extrasolar planetary systems at all evolutionary stages. We examine some possibilities of ALMA in this respect here.
