Development of a PET Insert for simultaneously small animal PET/MRI.
Division of Nuclear Technology and Applications, Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China PET/MR is a new multi-modality imaging system which provide both structural and functional information with good soft tissue imaging ability and no ionizing radiation. In recent years, PET/MR is under major progress because of the development of silicon photomult...
متن کاملFirst results from a high-resolution small animal PET insert for PET/MRI imaging
University of Manitoba, Canada We have recently completed construction of a high resolution small animal PET insert designed for operation inside a Bruker 7T MRI. The PET insert is designed to achieve a 1 mm spatial resolution in the centre of its field of view (FOV) and fit within the 114 mm inner diameter of the Bruker BGA-12S gradient coil while accommodating the Bruker 35 mm volume RF coil ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a PET Scanner for Simultaneously Imaging Small Animals with MRI and PET
Recently, positron emission tomography (PET) is playing an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and staging of cancer. Combined PET and X-ray computed tomography (PET-CT) scanners are now the modality of choice in cancer treatment planning. More recently, the combination of PET and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is being explored in many sites. Combining PET and MRI has presented many...
متن کاملMicro insert: a prototype full-ring PET device for improving the image resolution of a small-animal PET scanner.
UNLABELLED A full-ring PET insert device should be able to enhance the image resolution of existing small-animal PET scanners. METHODS The device consists of 18 high-resolution PET detectors in a cylindric enclosure. Each detector contains a cerium-doped lutetium oxyorthosilicate array (12 x 12 crystals, 0.72 x 1.51 x 3.75 mm each) coupled to a position-sensitive photomultiplier tube via an o...
متن کاملDesign of a very high-resolution small animal PET scanner using a silicon scatter detector insert.
A small animal positron emission tomography (PET) instrument using a high-resolution solid-state detector insert in a conventional PET system was investigated for its potential to achieve sub-millimeter spatial resolution for mouse imaging. Monte Carlo simulations were used to estimate the effect of detector configurations (thickness, length and radius) on sensitivity. From this initial study, ...
