MI PET Biograph Advanced - Oncology Focus

The MI PET Biograph Advanced – Oncology Focus class is designed for PET, Nuclear Medicine, and CT Technologists who have at least six months of experience operating a Biograph PET/CT system and would like to expand their knowledge of advanced oncology imaging applications. Through a combination of instructor-led lectures, software demonstrations, hands-on labs, and simulator exercises, participants will gain practical experience working with advanced Biograph oncology protocols, evaluating the impact of both PET and CT acquisition and reconstruction parameters on image quality, utilizing respiratory gating techniques, and applying quantitative imaging concepts to clinical oncology studies. 

Key Topics Covered:

• Overview of advanced Biograph oncology features and clinical applications
• Biograph sinogram-based oncology protocols and workflow optimization
• PET image reconstruction techniques and their impact on image quality
• CT acquisition and reconstruction settings and their impact on image quality
• Fundamentals of listmode imaging and advanced PET acquisition concepts
• PET and CT respiratory gating principles, techniques, and clinical applications
• PET quantification concepts for oncology imaging
• Protocol optimization, troubleshooting, and best practices
