Embodiment Construction

[0051] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, the preferred methods and materials are now described. All publications mentioned below are hereby incorporated by reference.

[0052] To improve the spatial resolution and sensitivity of brain research and clinical activities, we designed a combined PET / MRI insert for brain scanning, referred to in this paper as the "BrainPET Insert", which can be fit into the Appropriate MRI system on and within the system. In the example, a modification of a Siemens Biograph mMR system is described; however, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the PET insert can be used with other suitable MRI equipment, including, for example, a whole b...

Abstract

In order to improve both spatial resolution and sensitivity for brain research and clinical activity, we have designed a combined PET / MRI insert for brain scanning, referred to herein as a "BrainPET insert" that can be fit onto and into a suitable MRI system. The BrainPET Insert comprises, in order, a receive (Rx) coil positioned within and adjacent to a transmit (Tx) coil and a PET ring, wherein both the Rx coil and the Tx coil are within the PET ring.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 934,653, filed November 13, 2019, entitled "BrainPET System for Silmultaneous MRI and PET Imaging," which is incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes. into this article. Background technique [0003] Simultaneous imaging of the human brain using PET and MRI modalities is an advanced imaging method that improves spatial resolution, sensitivity, and accuracy for anatomical and metabolic imaging. [0004] Simultaneous imaging refers to imaging performed at the same time and on the same body volume. [0005] It is believed that there are important research and clinical applications for brain scanning using simultaneous PET-MRI imaging systems. Medical fields such as neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, brain cancer diagnosis, treatment monitoring and staging, and epilepsy surgery planning and evaluat...
