D1.7 Ultra-high-resolution dedicated brain PET with time-of-flight and depth of interaction detection

Dedicated brain PET (dbPET) prototype in seating/reclined position, with time-of-flight and depth of interaction detection, able to produce reconstructed images with 1.0mm spatial resolution. Brain cortex thickness is 1.5-4.5mm, containing six layers with different functions and neuro receptors. 1.0mm 3D spatial resolution will allow to assess brain functional activity at cortex layer / deep nuclei level.
