Medical imaging techniques are rapidly expanding in the field of plant sciences. Positron
emission tomography (PET) is advancing as a powerful functional imaging technique to …

Due to its high sensitivity and specificity for tumor detection, positron emission tomography
(PET) has become a standard and widely used molecular imaging technique. Given the …

Phloem transport is of great importance in trees to distribute assimilated carbon across the
entire tree. Nevertheless, knowledge of phloem is incomplete, because of the complexity of …

Background Ion transport is a fundamental physiological process that can be studied non-
invasively in living plants with radiotracer imaging methods. Fluoride is a known phytotoxic …

Plant studies using the short-lived isotope 11C to label photosynthate via atmospheric
carbon dioxide (CO2), have greatly advanced our knowledge about the allocation of recent …

Studies of long-distance transport of tracer isotopes in plants offer a high potential for
functional phenotyping, but so far measurement time is a bottleneck because continuous …

Opportunities and challenges in the use of radiotracers to measure phloem transport are
discussed, with an emphasis on noninvasive techniques to trace photoassimilate, carbon's …

• Field of view: 18 cm transaxially x 20 cm axially• Spatial resolution up to 1.6 mm,• sensitivity
6% in the center (350-650 keV)[2]• Comprises all required corrections, including individual …

Compartmental models can be used for inverse modeling of long distance tracer transport
experiments in plants. Such transport models describe axial convection and diffusion as well …

Het is af, wat een heerlijk gevoel. Het heeft de nodige energie en opofferingen gevergd om
uiteindelijk mijn doctoraat wat sneller dan gepland klaar te krijgen. Maar als fietsersbenen …
