Project: New high-resolution, high-sensitivity dedicated breast positron emission tomography scanner

The project will develop a next-generation nuclear imaging breast Positron Emission Tomography (PET) system with high sensitivity and high resolution based on the integration of cutting edge photonic and nanostructuration techniques enabling the localization of tumours two times faster. The clinical and economic advantages will represent a breakthrough in current standards of diagnosis and treatment through better image quality, faster response, lower tracer dose and lower cost of the exam.
