The EXPLORER scanner has an effective sensitivity for total-body imaging that is 40-fold higher than current commercial scanners and is expected to open up completely new ways in which PET can be used in biomedical research and ultimately in clinical practice. This massive increase in sensitivity can be used in a number of ways, for example:
A
to perform scans at extremely low radiation doses (similar magnitude to the dose received from a round trip flight between San Francisco and London)
to perform scans much more quickly (potentially in less than a minute)
to track the fate of radiotracers for much more time after injection
