Most physiologic effects of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) are mediated via the angiotensin
(Ang) type 1 receptor (AT 1 R). The 18 F-FPyKYNE derivative of the clinically used AT 1 …

Image reconstruction for positron emission tomography (PET) can be challenging and the
resulting image typically has high noise. The kernel-based reconstruction method [1], …

Dynamic PET imaging is used to monitor the spatio-temporal distribution of a tracer in a
tissue region. Dynamic PET can suffer from high noise; to address this problem, the kernel …

Rubidium-82 (Rb-82) is a useful blood flow tracer, and has become important in recent years
due to the shutdown of the Chalk River reactor. Published effective dose estimates for Rb-…

Patient motion is a common problem during dynamic PET scans for quantification of
myocardial blood flow (MBF). The purpose of this study was to quantify the prevalence of body …

Positron emission tomography (PET) is used to observe processes within the human body
using radioactive tracers. Quality of PET images is compromised by statistical noise, …
