Technical advances for imaging inflammation and infection

Oral

We highlight challenges and possible solutions to use PET for imaging inflammation and infection. We also report on the current design of the 4D-PET brain dedicated scanner, financed by the EU through an ERC-AdG, and report on the performance results measured with respect to sensitivity and spatial resolution. We also show some images obtained with phantoms. We describe the process followed to...

The recent introduction of long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) positron emission tomography (PET) offers substantially larger axial coverage of the body and a substantially higher system sensitivity comparing with conventional short axial field-of-view systems. This provides new opportunities for applying PET in clinical practice. Some examples are reduction of scan duration for example in...
