Molecular Imaging with Focus on PET

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: 3FK285

Molecular imaging (MI) is essentially a multidisciplinary field. For a deeper understanding of the method, it is required that the course illustrates all parts of the process from the physics behind the instruments to radio-labelling of molecules validation of these in vitro and in vivo. The course will also exemplify the questions which are suitably answered by MI. The course covers * radiochemistry in tracer development * preclinical methods for in vitro validation of molecular traces * preclinical in vivo imaging using PET and SPECT tracers * image analysis and image processing tools * quantification and modelling of tracer kinetics * PET as a tool for drug development and * the clinical use of PET, e.g. within neurology, oncology, cardiology, metabolic diseases and psychiatry.

Behörighet
