Changing the Field: An introduction to Magnetic Particle Imaging

Date: 29th August 2018

Time: 14.30 - 16.00

Speaker: Jeff Gaudet, PhD. Head of Applications at Magnetic Insight Inc. (California, USA)

Location: KTH Fleminsberg (Hälsovägen 11C, 14157 Huddinge); Room 7_7320

Abstract:

Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is a unique, ultra-sensitive, high-resolution molecular imaging approach that longitudinally detects nanoparticles regardless of depth. MPI harnesses the flexibility of iron oxide nanoparticles to label cells, as targeted probes, or freely flowing through the vasculature. This technology can be used in applications such as Cell Tracking Models, Functional Tumor Imaging, Localized Hyperthermic & Theranostic Imaging or Functional Vascular Imaging.

Speaker's CV:

Dr. Jeff Gaudet, is the Head of Applications at Magnetic Insight. His research has focused on developing and implementing emerging imaging technologies for tracking cellular therapeutics. Jeff started his career developing the first pre-clinical and clinical 19 F-MRI cell tracking site in Canada at Robarts Research Institute. Dr. Gaudet has a Ph.D. in Medical Biophysics and Molecular Imaging from Western University, and a B.Sc. in Biophysics from University of Guelph.
