A bit blurry and some artifacts, but PROOF that our MFM uncollimated #SPECT system works!!! (Axial, sagittal, coronal of a flat uniform disk ; 1mm cubic voxels).

The MFM uncollimated #SPECT system vibrates an attenuating wand between the patient and the detector. The changes in detector signal allow us to recover the high-frequency image components. Happy to talk further...ESPECIALLY TO INVESTORS! #raisingmoney
This vest contains SPECT sensors to measure PRRT organ dosimetry and results are sent over WiFi. Dosimetry is within 3% of true. No need for clinical SPECT scans for PRRT dosimetry, in-home dosimetry is here! https://t.co/EFJajEquyZ

Robert Miyaoka (UW) just got 1st place for best poster on Physics Instrumentation, and Data science at @SNMMI for his poster on experimental results for the PRRT Vest!
We finally have the patent application for MFM in and have go-ahead to start publishing results!!!
MFM is a new single-photon imaging modality that uses moving attenuators to recover high-frequency data from the object being imaged.

HUGE WIN for the PRRT Vest today:
Real radiation measurements on the Hauck phantom show organ dosimetry to within 3% of truth!!!

1.0 mm image resolution using uncollimated MFM-SPECT!!!!!
Thanks to UW CoMotion and the Washington Research Foundation!

Goodbye Collimator…. HELLOOOO SENSITIVITY!!!
Reconstruction tests from our new Un-Collimated MFM-SPECT are looking pretty good!

In February, Robert Miyaoka and I came up with an idea for a new SPECT scanner. It has over 1,000 times the sensitivity of current SPECT.
Today, @UW CoMotion awarded us $50,000 to build a benchtop prototype of the new SPECT camera!

FDG may have a role as a prognostic factor for PRRT. Retrospective look at 500 patients. #enam19 https://t.co/ijy2tjWH9D is doing a multicenter study on this as well.
