Feasibility study of a SiPM-fiber detector for non-invasive measurement of arterial input function for preclinical and clinical positron emission tomography

Abstract Pharmacokinetic positron emission tomography (PET) studies rely on the measurement of the arterial input function (AIF), which represents the time-activity curve of the radiotracer concentration in the blood plasma. Traditionally, obtaining the AIF requires invasive procedures, such as arte...
