Open Geometry PET, with 150ps TOF Resolution, for Real Time Molecular Imaging

Objective

Open-IMAGING will develop an innovative Open Imaging System, highly flexible and adaptable to the organ to be examined. The system of the Proof of Concept will consist of two large paddle detectors built with the novel PET (Positron Emission Tomography) technology developed in 4D-PET ERC-ADG. Outstanding (<150ps) Coincidence Time Resolution and placing the detectors closer to the Field of View (FOV) will dramatically increase the sensitivity, allowing high resolution and high contrast images, at lower dose (factor 10) than current commercial scanners. It will open up new venues for real time image-guided interventions (surgery, radiation therapy) and in-vivo tracking of small number of cells. It will also enable performing repeated scans for active surveillance of suspect patients, diminishing the number of false positives, and a safer post-treatment (for instance, chemotherapy) follow-up.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
