The Division of Advanced Medical Imaging Research was established in 2009 and provides seamless integration of preclinical and clinical imaging efforts, priorities for imaging, and allows coordinated institutional support.
Major focuses of the Division of Advanced Medical Imaging Research include translational imaging approaches that characterize disease biology, predict response and guide therapeutic interventions, and development of paired imaging-computational frameworks. This includes advancement of novel imaging and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, translational preclinical imaging approaches, and computational approaches in machine learning and artificial intelligence. Particular disease areas of focus within AMIR are oncology, neurology, and immune-mediated diseases. Furthermore, preclinical imaging studies are used to establish and optimize imaging protocols that are subsequently applied in human patients and clinical trials.
