Ex Vivo Simultaneous H215O Positron Emission Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Porcine Kidneys—A Feasibility Study
Our study demonstrated the feasibility of combined H<sub>2</sub><sup>15</sup>O PET/MRI during NMP of isolated porcine kidneys with tissue oxygenation being stable over time. The introduction of H215O PET/MRI in nephrological research could be highly relevant for future pre-transplant kidney evaluation and as a tool for studying renal physiology in healthy and diseased kidneys.
