Proposals to enhance the amount of radiation dose delivered to small tumors with
radioimmunotherapy by constraining emitted electrons with very strong homogeneous static …

Tomographic breast imaging techniques can potentially improve detection and diagnosis of
cancer in women with radiodense and/or fibrocystic breasts. We have developed a high-…

Multi-modality imaging is rapidly becoming a valuable tool in the diagnosis of disease and
in the development of new drugs. Functional images produced with PET fused with …

ROl volume is reduced in complexity through the use of assumptions regarding the tissue
types which contribute signal to this volume. Optimization of the ROl position on heart images …

Accelerating polarized protons to 22 GeV/c at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchro-tron
required both extensive hardware modifications and a difficult commissioning process. …

Positron emission tomography (PET) relies upon the detection of photons resulting from the
annihilation of positrons emitted by a radiopharmaceutical. The combination of images …

Background Positron Emission Tomography ( PET ) is traditionally used to image patients in
restrictive positions, with few devices allowing for upright, brain‐dedicated imaging. Our …

The link between body weight, lipid metabolism, and health risks is poorly understood and
difficult to study. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) permits noninvasive investigation …

Positron emission mammography (PEM) is a technique to obtain planar images of the breast
for detection of potentially cancerous, radiotracer-avid tumors. To increase the diagnostic …

… have been investigating the application of PEM to guide stereotactic core biopsy (Raylman …
valleys between adjacent crystals in the crystal identification map for our detector (Raylman …
