SU-A-TRACK 4-0 (Sunday, 7/25/2021) 10:30 AM - 11:30 AM [Eastern Time (GMT-4)]
With the disruptive technology leap of solid state SiPM PET detectors, improvements in PET instrumentation and technologies are happening at a staggering pace. At the same time, rapid development of computational technologies has made artificial intelligence (AI) more feasible and increasingly important.
This symposium aims to describe current clinical status and future expectations of utilizing SiPM PET in radiology and radiation oncology patient care, as well as innovative technologies and novel AI features of emerging SiPM PET instrumentation focusing on how digital PET is better than analog PET. Physicists, physicians and technologists wishing to better understand novel PET systems and technologies are expected to attend this symposium.
Learning objectives:
1. Understand and learn current challenges of clinical care as well as expectations of future improvement using SiPM PET technologies in both radiology and radiation oncology.
2. Learn physics of SiPM PET technologies and specify emerging SiPM PET instrumentations and their novel AI features.
3. Identify and learn the advantages of digital PET than analog PET from imaging acquisition to clinical application.
Topics:
1. Clinical Considerations of SiPM PET in Radiology and Radiation Oncology: Motivating Applications and Needs.
2. Technologies and AI Features of SiPM PET Instrumentation: What is available and how is digital PET better than analog PET?
