New super-resolution technique allows for more detailed brain imaging

A new imaging technique has the potential to detect neurological disorders—such as Alzheimer's disease—at their earliest stages, enabling physicians to diagnose and treat patients more quickly. Termed super-resolution, the imaging methodology combines position emission tomography (PET) with an external motion tracking device to create highly detailed images of the brain. This research was presented at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging's 2021 Virtual Annual Meeting.
