Open AccessThe assessment of left ventricular volume and function in gated small animal 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging: a comparative study of three commercially available software tools
Several software tools have been developed for gated PET imaging that use distinct algorithms to analyze tracer uptake, myocardial perfusion, and left ventricle volumes and function. Studies suggest that diffe...

Open AccessDetection of apoptosis by [18F]ML-10 after cardiac ischemia–reperfusion injury in mice
Myocardial infarction leads to ischemic heart disease and cell death, which is still a major obstacle in western society. In vivo imaging of apoptosis, a defined cascade of cell death, could identify myocardia...

Open AccessComparison of transient and permanent LAD ligation in mice using 18F-FDG PET imaging
Animal models for myocardial injuries represent important cornerstones in cardiovascular research to monitor the pathological processes and therapeutic approaches. We investigated the association of 18F-FDG de...

Open AccessFeasibility of short imaging protocols for [18F]PI-2620 tau-PET in progressive supranuclear palsy
Dynamic 60-min positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with the novel tau radiotracer [18F]PI-2620 facilitated accurate discrimination between patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and healthy con...

In-vivo comparison of the acute retention of stem cell derivatives and fibroblasts after intramyocardial transplantation in the mouse model
Various strategies have been applied to increase the engraftment of an intramyocardial cell transplant (Tx) to treat ischemic myocardium. Thereby, co-transplanted fibroblasts (FB) improve the long-term surviva...

Positron emission tomography based in-vivo imaging of early phase stem cell retention after intramyocardial delivery in the mouse model
To establish PET as a tool for in-vivo quantification and monitoring of intramyocardially transplanted stem cells after labelling with FDG in mice with induced myocardial infarction.

A prototype high-resolution animal positron tomograph with avalanche photodiode arrays and LSO crystals
To fully utilize positron emission tomography (PET) as a non-invasive tool for tissue characterization, dedicated instrumentation is being developed which is specially suited for imaging mice and rats. Semicon...
