Positron Emission Tomography (PET) research at the Center enables sensitive, quantitative visualization of molecular and metabolic processes in living systems. Investigators develop advanced radiotracers, acquisition methods, and hybrid ET/MR approaches to measure metabolism, receptor binding,… Positron Emission Tomography
The state-of-the-art MR-PET suite houses a full range of instrumentation for novel combined MR-PET imaging, including the MR-PET scanners in Bay 6 and Bay 7 (see the Magnetic Resonance Imaging page) and cyclotron and chemistry laboratories for production PET radiotracers. Cyclotron A… Positron Emission Tomography
The trial also demonstrated the capabilities of collagen PET imaging.
In a study of 30 active-duty United States SOF personnel, researchers found that increased blast exposure was associated with structural, functional, and neuroimmune changes to the brain and a decline in health-related quality of life.

The technique yields higher quality images from less data, reducing radiation doses for CT and PET and shortening scan times for MRI.
The newly published research draws on data from the Harvard Aging Brain Study.
The Martinos Center’s Christin Sander and colleagues reported the finding last month.
Pauline Désogère and colleagues described the probe in a Science Translational Medicine paper published online today.
A new PET radiotracer could enable early detection of the risk of heart failure or cardiac arrhythmia, and thus help to save more lives.
The Center produced 277 nuclear reactions last year and you didn’t hear about any of them. Here’s why.
