This scanner provides higher spatial resolution for imaging infants <15kg. The scanner has more than 24,000 individual LSO detectors. In order to assure safety and comfort of the infants during the PET scan, the infant is bundled with blankets and the bundled infant is then fastened to the bed with velcro straps.
