Areas of specialization include: PET/CT and PET/MR image formation, quantification and accuracy | Radionuclide dosimetry | Kinetic modeling The research in his laboratory is directed at functional imaging using Positron Emission Tomography (PET). A strong interest lies in the factors affecting absolute quantification of PET images such as partial volume, scatter, and patient motion artifacts. Ongoing research is looking at novel techniques of image acquisition, correction and formation. Other interests lie in modeling the distribution of novel radiotracers to image specific biochemical processes such as metabolism, blood flow, receptor binding and expression.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Affiliations  Research Consortia Gulf Coast Cluster for Translational Imaging  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Professor Imaging Physics UT MD Anderson Cancer Center
