We're living in the future.
EXPLORER combines positron emission tomography and x-ray computed tomography, allowing the impressive scanner to capture radiation far more efficiently than its predecessors or current competitors. This means that the novel imaging tool can produce a picture in as little as one second and then, with just a little more time, can provide actual video clips that track the progression of substances in the body.
"We could see features that you just don't see on regular PET scans. And the dynamic sequence showing the radiotracer moving around the body in three dimensions over time was, frankly, mind-blowing. There is no other device that can obtain data like this in humans, so this is truly novel."
