Abstract
Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is a new non-invasive imaging technique with significantly increased sensitivity over MRI and faster acquisition times than PET and MRI.
The MPI capability at the Alfred Research Alliance - Monash Biomedical Imaging site in Melbourne, Australia, is the world’s first MPI system with Computed Tomography (CT) and Hyperthermia capabilities. It provides unique capabilities that open the door to cutting-edge opportunities for interdisciplinary projects in medical research, chemistry and biotechnology.
The webinar will involve:
* official launch of Magnetic Particle Imaging at Monash University
* the MPI system supplier, Magnetic Insight, discussing the world first technology and its potential
* presentations from key researchers outlining MPI applications and the benefits of utilising the technology.
