Description
Positron emission tomography (PET) is the internationally recognized gold standard for the accurate quantification of myocardial flow reserve (MFR) and metabolic status, conventional oncology-centric systems struggle with the high-frequency motion and small-target nature of cardiac imaging.
To facilitate dynamic quantification and functional imaging, we are developing a high-performance, cardiac-dedicated TOF-PET system. The target technical specifications include $\text{sub-}250 \text{ps}$ TOF resolution, $\text{sub-}1.1 \text{mm}$ spatial resolution, and $\text{sub-}3 \text{mm}$ depth-of-interaction (DOI) resolution. The system further integrates both Electrocardiogram (ECG) gating and exercise stress equipment, aiming to achieve multi-dimensional cardiac functional imaging, such as simultaneous perfusion-metabolism assessment, under exercise stress conditions.
These preliminary results demonstrate the system's potential to provide high-resolution, motion-corrected cardiac functional imaging for clinical diagnostics.
