The dance of matter with antimatter. Poles' new biomarker idea for tomography
Go to the source page
Annihilation (destruction of matter and antimatter) has long served humans in PET scanners. Now an interdisciplinary team from Poland has developed a lightweight and inexpensive next-generation CT scanner, J-PET, that measures the rate of this annihilation in various tissues. With this new biomarker, they have shown how to make brain maps with entirely new information, such as glioma.
