MRC-SPECT-DF: an MR-Compatible SPECT system with Dual-FOV collimation design for microscopic SPECT imaging
University of Illinois, USA We will report the design and performance of a MR-compatible SPECT system that utilizes a dual-FOV aperture design for microscopic SPECT imaging of small animals inside an pre-existing MR scanner. The MRC-SPECT-DF system consists of a full ring of high resolution CdTe detectors and an aperture that consists of dual-FOV aperture system design that has two sets of aper...
متن کاملMRC-SPECT: A sub-500 μm resolution MR-compatible SPECT system for simultaneous dual-modality study of small animals.
In this paper, we will report the development of an ultrahigh resolution MR-compatible SPECT system that can be operated inside a pre-existing clinical MR scanner for simultaneous dual-modality imaging of small animals. This system is constructed with 40 small-pixel CdTe detector modules assembled in a fully stationary ring SPECT geometry. We have experimentally demonstrated that this system is...
متن کاملThe application of a compact MR - compatible SPECT system for small animal SPECT / MR imaging and tracer kinetics studies
BODY: Objectives : A new F-18 agent for PET myocardial perfusion imaging (BMS747158) has been shown to have excellent image quality in a Phase I clinical trial. In a subgroup of patients undergoing imaging with this agent in a Phase II clinical trial, we assessed if dual gated perfusion study is feasible and leads to improved image quality. We generated motion free perfusion images by combining...
متن کاملNanoprobes for hybrid SPECT/MR molecular imaging.
Hybrid imaging techniques provide enhanced visualization of biological targets by synergistically combining multiple imaging modalities, thereby providing information on specific aspects of structure and function, which is difficult to obtain by a single imaging modality. Advances in the field of hybrid imaging have resulted in the recent approval of PET/magnetic resonance (MR) imaging by the U...
متن کاملSusceptibility phantom for compatibility testing of SPECT components for a SPECT/MR hybrid system
MRI.TOOLS GmbH, Berlin, Germany A susceptibility phantom was designed and built from an acrylic glass cylinder (inner diameter: 170 mm, length: 250 mm). A reference structure consisting of 32 rods (diameter: 3 mm) was placed inside the phantom (Figure 1A) together with a plastic scale with marks every 20 mm. The phantom was filled with agarose gel (εr = 75, s = 0.73 S/m) to mimic human tissue [...
