Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We propose a fluorescent x-ray computed tomography based on multiple pinholes (pFXCT) for preclinical molecular imaging. The proposed method simultaneously acquires multiple projections for a single view through the multi-pinhole collimator with a two-dimensional detector and a full-field volumetric beam to speed up data acquisition and to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio of projections. We constructed an pFXCT imaging system having fifteen pinholes at beamline ARNE-7A in KEK and performed preliminary experiments to investigate its imaging properties using physical phantoms including non-radioactive iodine imaging agent. The pFXCT attained a minimum detectable concentration of 38 I ug/ml required for in-vivo imaging at a spatial resolution of about 300 um for a data-acquisition time of 90 min less than an effective time of anesthesia, which suggests that preclinical molecular imaging is feasible with pFXCT.
