🔬 Multiplexed PET for Dual Radiotracer PET Imaging 🦠

Abstract:
PET imaging is a powerful noninvasive imaging modality based on the detection of the annihilation gamma rays from the positrons emitted by an administered radiotracer. Reconstruction methods for PET focus on this methodology, excluding coincidences from isotopes that emit gamma rays in addition to the positron emission. Here, multiplexed PET leverages prompt gamma emissions from positron-gamma emitters to enable truly simultaneous dual-isotope PET imaging without . By using this new reconstruction method, existing clinical and preclinical PET scanners capable of recording events beyond standard coincidences can now be used for dual PET tracer studies. Isotopes that enable multiplexing include 44Sc, 52Mn, 72As, 86Y, and 124I. We show examples of dual small molecule imaging with 18FDG and 124I-trametininb, nanoparticle tracking in lung as well as melanoma models, as well as CAR-T targeting for PSMA+ tumors. We also show new phantoms for mPET and reconstruction improvements to the mPET method using deep learning to reduce the noise of the images and improve the accuracy of the isotope separation.
