CIBM PET EPFL SECTION

Mapping Glucose Metabolism

Section Head: Prof. Rolf Gruetter (EPFL)

CIBM owns an avalanche photodiode (APD) PET scanner situated adjacent to the animal MRI of CIBM-AIT, ideal for investigators wishing to complement their rodent MR studies with PET measurement. All isotopes that can be produced off-site and transported to the CIBM can be measured. Physiology support is assured through the infrastructure of CIBM-AIT, whereas the operation of the APD scanner requires a collaboration with LIFMET.
