Project Overview

This project is to develop an open source small animal imaging and therapy platform that integrates imaging, specifically Computed Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET), and therapy, specifically radiotherapy (RT), together. The ultimate goal of this project is to provide public design specifications and software for this system, enabling researchers to build their own system according to the available resources and needs. The specific aim for the design project is to provide initial design of such an open source imaging/therapy platform and potentially start prototyping the system at the fast prototyping system at the Morgridge Institute for Research (MIR).
