With the arrival of increasingly higher-resolution PET systems, small amounts of motion can
cause significant blurring in the resulting images compared with the intrinsic resolution of the …

Currently, the combination of positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) as a hybrid imaging modality is receiving great attention not only in its …

The use of small animal imaging is increasing in biomedical research thanks to its ability to
localize altered biochemical and physiological processes in the living animal and to follow …

The ability to trace or identify specific molecules within a specific anatomic location provides
insight into metabolic pathways, tissue components, and tracing of solute transport …

Purpose Spatial resolution in myocardial imaging is impaired by both cardiac and
respiratory motion owing to motional blurring. We investigated the feasibility of a dual …

We present and validate a method to obtain an input function from dynamic image data and
0 or 1 blood sample for small-animal 18F-FDG PET studies. The method accounts for …

Imaging Stem Cells Implanted in Infarcted Myocardium Rong Zhou, Paul D. Acton, Victor A.
Ferrari Stem cell–based cellular cardiomyoplasty represents a promising therapy for …

Cardiac motion and partial volume effects (PVE) are two of the main causes of image
degradation in cardiac PET. Motion generates artifacts and blurring while PVE lead to …

Nano-sized particles are widely regarded as a tool to study biologic events at the cellular
and molecular levels. However, only some imaging modalities can visualize interaction …

A shared feature in the value proposition of every nanomaterial-based drug delivery systems
is the desirable improvement in the disposition (or ADME) and pharmacokinetic profiles of …
