- Description
- Background: Animal models play an important role in the translational research for drug development.� The mission of Molecular Imaging Branch is to develop various imaging probes for the brain to study psychiatric disorders in human.� The efficacy of all novel radiotracers will have to be tested in vivo in animals before they get applied to human.� The Molucular Imaging Branch acquired two microPET Focus preclinical scanner in 2006. Both scanners have reached their end of life as the vendor will discontinue their support to all microPET scanners by December 31, 2020. In order to continue our research mission, the Molecular Imaging Branch seeks to acquire a human PET/CT scanner to replace the Focuses.� �� With the technology advance, current human PET/CT scanners have more than adequate resolution to image nonhuman primates, as �the Molecular Imaging Branch has already been using the human PET/CT in �Clinical Center PET Department to perform whole body monkey scans for the past few years.� Because of the high demands for human studies and concerns about cross species contamination in the PET Department, it is recommended that we obtain our own scanner for the animal imaging program, continuing the same set-up. Purpose and Objectives: The purpose of this acquisition is to procure a PET/CT scanner for the non-human primate PET (Positron Emission Tomography) imaging program.��
