MicroPET II is a second-generation animal PET scanner designed for high-resolution
imaging of small laboratory rodents. The system consists of 90 scintillation detector modules …

The development of dedicated small animal PET (positron emission tomography) scanners
has led to significantly higher spatial resolution and comparable sensitivity to clinical …

With the increasing use of in vivo imaging in mouse models of disease, there are many
interesting applications that demand imaging of organs and tissues with submillimeter resolution. …

Excellent spatial resolution is a requirement for preclinical PET imaging. In order to achieve
spatial resolution of significantly better than one millimeter, an appealing possibility is to …

Radioembolization using Yttrium‐90 ( 90 Y) microspheres is widely used to treat primary
and metastatic liver tumors. The present work provides minimum practice guidelines for …

Introduction: Despite increasing interest in reducing radiation doses during endoscopic
stone surgery, there is conflicting evidence as to whether percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) …

Estimation of the tracer uptake in a region of interest (ROI) is an important task in emission
tomography. ROI quantification is essential for measuring clinical factors such as tumor activity…

In this paper we present experimental results obtained with an orthogonal strip CdTe detector
designed for application to small animal PET. The detector was designed to provide timing …

The first direct in situ measurements of HO 2 NO 2 in the upper troposphere were performed
from the NASA DC‐8 during the Intercontinental Chemical Transport Experiment–North …

As the mouse becomes the" work horse" for modern biology, the ability to accurately visualize
and understand the biology at smaller length scales in vivo is necessary. Advances in …
