GE Medical and Amersham Sharpen Their Molecular Image

With a surge in interest in molecular imaging, GE Medical Systems has been on the prowl for new technologies that improve performance of its PET and SPECT systems, so that clinicians can obtain information at the subcellular level. Amersham Health, too, has been been looking for better systems to help improve distribution and performance of its radiopharmaceutical labeling agents. Now the two are joining forces to create a next-generation compound for PET using new, easier-to-use chemistries.
