Description

Simon Cherry [Professor of Bioengineering, UC Davis] Abstract: Biomedical imaging technologies have revolutionized medicine over the past century and have become indispensable tools in the diagnosis and management of a wide range of diseases, as well as in basic and preclinical research in animal models. Each imaging modality has its own characteristic strengths and weaknesses, and for this reason, there has been a growing trend towards hybrid imaging devices that can integrate the advantages of two different imaging technologies into a single instrument. This presentation will trace the development of hybrid magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) scanners, a new technology that promises to deliver unique imaging capabilities into the biomedical research field, and ultimately into clinical diagnostics. The challenges in integrating these two imaging techniques will be discussed, and early imaging data from prototype systems presented.
