Clinical Translation of a Novel Brain PET Insert for Simultaneous PET/MR
Start Date
4/1/2025
Completion Date
3/31/2028
Summary
The primary goal of this project is to study the feasibility of a brain-dedicated PET insert for an MR scanner for simultaneous acquisition of PET/MR images of human brains. The study will also allow us to compare the imaging performance of the investigator's brain-dedicated PET insert against a commercial whole-body permanently integrated PET/MRI system using a common radiopharmaceutical.
Detailed Description
This study will enroll up to 40 participants. 1. 20 participants at Stanford injected with an FDA-approved PET tracer (e.g. amyloid, FDG, etc.), and 2. 20 participants from Stanford who have been pre-injected with a radiopharmaceutical for a study on another PET imaging system
