- Abstract:
- Abstract: The development of positron emission computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) scanner is a hot research topic in the development of multimodality molecular imaging in the last 15 years. Herein the characteristics of PET and MRI as well as the advantages of multimodality PET/MRI are introduced. Then the early history of PET/MRI scanner development is reviewed. Several important prototype MRI-compatible small animal PET scanners and commercial clinical PET/MRI scanners are mainly introduced. Finally, the recent advances in the development of PET/MRI scanners are summarized, and the future development and application research of PET/MRI are discussed.
