Résumé
Awake rat brain positron emission tomography (PET) has previously been developed to avoid the influence of anesthesia on the rat brain response. In the present work, we further the awake rat brain scanning methodology to establish simultaneous scanning of two interacting rats in a high resolution, large field of view PET scanner. Awake rat imaging methodology based on point source tracking was adapted to be used in a dedicated human brain scanner, the ECAT high resolution research tomograph (HRRT). Rats could freely run on a horizontal platform of 19.4 × 23 cm placed inside the HRRT. The developed methodology was validated using a motion resolution phantom experiment, 3 awake single rat [
