Abi-Dargham uses molecular imaging techniques, such as SPECT and PET, to study the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, schizophrenia related spectrum disorders, and addiction.
This could be as much as NOK 500 million per year, which would go to the establishment of hospital physical training centres and investment in PET-scanners.
Oxygen-15 is an isotope of oxygen, frequently used in positron emission tomography, or PET experiments.
Yusuf Emre Erdi (b. Oct. 26, 1964) is a medical physicist who is internationally known for his expertise in positron-emission tomography (PET).

Of specific interest is using structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), diffusion MRI (dMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), electroencephalography (EEG), positron emission tomography (PET), Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and other non-invasive scanning techniques to map anatomy, physiology, perfusion, function and phenotypes of the human brain.
The evaluation typically includes neurological examination, routine EEG, Long-term video-EEG monitoring,neuropsychological evaluation, and neuroimaging such as MRI, Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET).
She has produced unusual sculptures based on live human bodies using the scanning technologies of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET), normally used for medical reasons.
They are attractive candidates for the replacement of the conventional PMT in PET and SPECT imaging since they provide high gain with low voltage and fast response, they are very compact and magnetic resonance compatible.
