Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful, quantitative imaging modality that has
been used for decades to noninvasively investigate cardiovascular biology and physiology …

PET scanners are sophisticated and highly sensitive biomedical imaging devices that can
produce highly quantitative images showing the 3-dimensional distribution of radiotracers …

Whole-body PET scanners are not optimized for imaging small structures in the human
brain. Several PET devices specifically designed for this task have been proposed either for …

PET is a medical imaging modality with proven clinical value for disease diagnosis and
treatment monitoring. The integration of PET and CT on modern scanners provides a …

Many radiotherapy research centers have recently installed novel research platforms
enabling the investigation of the radiation response of tumors and normal tissues in small …

The use of small animal models in basic and preclinical sciences constitutes an integral part
of testing new pharmaceutical agents prior to commercial translation to clinical practice …

The underlying principles of nuclear medicine imaging involve the use of unsealed sources
of radioactivity in the form of radiopharmaceuticals. The ionizing radiations that accompany …

Preclinical and clinical tomographic imaging systems increasingly are being utilized for non-
invasive imaging of reporter gene products to reveal the distribution of molecular …

Today, PET and SPECT tracers cannot be imaged simultaneously at high resolutions but
require 2 separate imaging systems. This paper introduces a Versatile Emission Computed …

Here we report the radiolabeling of gold nanoshells (NSs) for PET imaging in rat tumor
model. A conjugation method was developed to attach NSs with the radionuclide, 64Cu. The …
