Multimodality imaging has become an attractive tool of cardiovascular imaging, delineating cardiac structures with high spatial resolution combined with specific metabolic and molecular information provided by tracer techniques. PET/CT offers the opportunity of non-invasive coronary angiography and myocardial perfusion imaging, linking anatomic definition of coronary stenosis with the...

Introduction: different quantitative parameters estimated from PET and dedicated breast PET images have been proposed in order to describe heterogeneity in tumors, which could have predictive value in breast cancer. However, existing studies have not reached agreement on the predictive performance, in particular for textural features and other heterogeneity-related parameters. We have carried...

The EndoTOFPET-US collaboration is developing a multi-modal imaging tool combining Ultrasound with Time-Of-Flight Positron Emission Tomography into an endoscopic imaging device. The objective of the project is to obtain a coincidence time resolution of about 200ps FWHM and to achieve ~1mm spatial resolution for the PET head, while integrating all the components in a very compact detector...
