Research Description

My laboratory is involved with developing Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) techniques as a tool for basic biomedical research. I am currently developing, fabricating, and testing novel PET scanners that can be used inside high-field MRI scanners for simultaneous acquisition of PET and MRI data.
