PET/MR Insights

What is PET/MR?

PET/MR is a hybrid imaging technology that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). PET provides functional information by detecting radiotracers, while MRI offers high-resolution anatomical details. Combining these modalities allows for simultaneous acquisition of functional and anatomical data, providing a more comprehensive understanding of physiological processes and disease. PET/MR is commonly used in oncology, neurology, and cardiology for improved diagnosis, staging, and treatment monitoring.
