UC-Davis Researchers Awarded $15.5M NIH Grant To Create New Whole-Body Imaging Device
NIH has awarded a team of UC-Davis researchers a five-year, $15.5 million grant to build an imaging device that can scan the entire body while reducing scanning time and radiation exposure. The device will combine two technologies -- positron emission tomography and computerized axial tomography, known as PET and CAT scans, respectively -- and officials say it could change the way cancers are monitored and treated.
