Assessing robustness of network-based correlation analysis with preclinical total-body PET data

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstract

Abstract

While traditional PET is limited to a small axial field-of-view (FOV) and produces images with low resolution that require long scan times and a significant radiation dose delivered to the patient, total-body PET takes advantage of an extended FOV that covers the entire body. Extending the
coverage of the PET scanner increases the image resolution, which can allow for either quicker or reduced-dose scanning. An important research benefit is that it provides a scan that shows how the entire body is responding physiologically to a radiotracer at one time. This is advantageous for studying systems biology, a rapidly growing field involving the study of complex
interactions between tissues, organs, and organ systems within the body.
