Small animal research is an essential tool in studying both pharmaceutical biodistribution
and disease progression over time. Furthermore, through the rapid development of in vivo …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an irreversible, progressive disease that slowly destroys
cognitive function, such as thinking, remembering, and reasoning, to a level that one cannot …

The use of monolithic scintillator-based photon detectors in positron emission tomography
(PET) has emerged as an attractive alternative to traditional pixelated array designs …

The MOLECUBES β-CUBE scanner is the newest amongst commercially available
preclinical PET scanners for dedicated small animal imaging. The scanner is compact …

Age-related neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are associated with the aggregation and
