Congratulations to Amelia Moore, Glen Blake and Gary Cook, who have been awarded £42,949 for their project titled ‘Development of an improved method of measuring total body bone perfusion using total-body PET/CT’.
Dr Amy Sharkey, a Radiology Registrar completing a PhD in our School, is working on a clinical study using a new type of PET scan tracer that could change this 👇
Funded by NPIP, the project's aims include:
🦴 Developing a total-body PET bone blood flow measurement
🔹 Developing new scanning protocols
🟢 Reducing radiation exposure by lowering tracer dose
🫀 Imaging the heart, which will eliminate the need to take blood samples for quantitative analysis
A huge thank you to the 135 staff and student volunteers who shared their biomedical engineering research, experiences and journeys with visitors. Their knowledge and enthusiasm are what makes our stand so special ✨
