    Hybrid systems integrating Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and Focused Ultrasound (FUS) are highly attractive for preclinical imaging and therapy monitoring, yet no commercial trimodal solution is currently available. In this work, we present the development and validation of a dedicated preclinical PET insert designed for simultaneous operation with...

    High spatial resolution is essential to successfully resolve small structures in the brain and to enable imaging of neurological pathways at the onset of diseases. A key challenge with ultra-high-resolution PET scanners is the significant degradation of resolution that occurs beyond the central area of the field-of-view (FOV). The Ultra-High-Resolution (UHR) Brain PET scanner was designed with...

    Introduction The Human Dynamic NeuroChemical Connectome (HDNCC) scanner is a novel, brain-dedicated imaging system that integrates the high spatio-temporal resolution NeuroSphere PET insert with a Siemens MAGNETOM Terra.X 7T MRI scanner. While PET-MR technology offers exceptional molecular sensitivity, existing systems often lack the temporal resolution required to capture dynamic changes...

    Brain Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging provides functional assessment of different physiological and pathophysiological processes in the human brain. It can therefore be used to evaluate tumors, infections, inflammation, and various neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer or Parkinson, among others. The combination of PET with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) enhances our...

    Background. Spatial heterogeneity of radiotracer distribution within the tumour microenvironment is a primary determinant of radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) efficacy and normal-tissue toxicity. Quantifying this heterogeneity in living tissue at the mesoscale the biologically relevant length scale of 50–500 μm that encompasses individual micro-vessels, hypoxic gradients, and...
