We are the leading clinical PET centre in the UK, currently scanning over 8000 patients a year, the vast majority of these being whole body FDG oncology studies.
We use our cutting-edge facilities and expertise to provide a first-class clinical PET service for patients alongside basic, translational and applied clinical PET research across all specialities including oncology, neurology, psychiatry and cardiology. As part of the National PET Imaging Platform (NPIP), the PET Centre is using large axial field of view (total body) PET to explore new opportunities in PET research and advance clinical practice.
The PET Centre is the first in the UK to have a purpose designed scanning suite which now houses two state-of-the-art large axial field of view Siemens Biograph Vision Quadra PET-CT scanners alongside a simultaneous Siemens Biograph mMR PET-MR scanner. We also have a third PET-CT scanner, a Siemens Biograph mCT Flow scanner, in the Cancer Centre at Guy's Hospital.
