The Center for Advanced Imaging is operated by the WVU Department of Radiology The PET/CT facility uses a Siemens Medical Systems Biograph 16 PET/CT scanner and a Philips Medical Systems Gemini time-of-flight PET/CT scanner. Both systems are capable of quantitative whole body clinical imaging. In addition, The Center for Advanced Imaging houses a General Electric Medical Systems PETtrace cyclotron capable of producing the most common PET radionuclides (11C, 18F, 13N and 15O). This facility also has the equipment for synthesis of a number of PET radiopharmaceuticals. The MRI facility operates five MRI scanners: a Siemens Medical Systems Vario 3T scanner, two Siemens Medical Systems 1.5T Avanto scanners, a General Electric Medical Systems 1.5T Twin Speed scanner and a Philip Medical Systems 1T Panorama open MRI scanner. All the systems have clinical imaging capabilities.
