| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a useful imaging modality that quantifies the distributions of radiolabeled tracer. However, this technique is unsuitable for multiple-probe imaging. There for, we developed a new PET system, which is useful for multiple-probe imaging, based on a new principle. To test the practical performance of the developed system, we carried out a small animal imaging. In this experiment, Na-22 and F-18-FDG were administered to a normal mouse and a 30-min scan was performed. We successfully reconstructed the reasonable images for dual-probe distributions. We also performed dual-probe mouse imaging using F-18-FDG and Sc-44, which is suitable for the clinical use, and successfully reconstructed the images for dual probes. These works contribute a future development of the multiple-probe PET system.
