[ PMOD Small Animal Imaging Day - Zurich 2010 Overview]
PMOD Small Animal Imaging Day    |    March 17, 2010   |   Zurich, Switzerland
Overview


The PMOD Small Animal Imaging Day (PAD) is a new, one-day course that focuses on specific aspects of small animal imaging when working with PMOD. The participants will be trained in the processing of small animal data using PMOD and will learn the principles and special techniques required for the meaningful analysis of the uptake in small tissue structures. Brief presentations will be complemented with live demonstrations, and ample time will be available for individual practice and for interacting with the trainers.

The participants are required to bring their own notebooks. They will obtain a USB flash key with the latest PMOD version as well as training data sets. PMOD can be started directly from the key, such that the configuration of the notebook will remain untouched. As a courtesy, the key can be taken home and will work for another two months. This will give the participants the opportunity to complete their studies if needed, and to try the PMOD tools on their own data.

Target Audience and Prerequisites

The audience is supposed to be researchers who do preclinical studies on small animals or plan to do them, PET hardware engineers and scientists wishing to learn more about end user requirements, molecular imaging novices and experts, etc.

To get optimal benefit from attending, some familiarity with PMOD will be required, as for instance acquired at the two days PMOD Training Workshop. Specifically, some experience with the viewing, fusion, and kinetic modeling modules of PMOD will be expected. Participants experienced with SPM or similar packages and NOT having experience with PMOD are recommended to download from the PMOD website a 60 days trial license and build up some pre-course PMOD experience.

Optional PMOD Training Workshop

On March 15-16, right before this PMOD Small Animal Imaging Day (PAD), a PMOD Training Workshop will be organized in the same course environment. The training workshop is aimed at participants who started using PMOD recently and have a basic to intermediate skill level. The workshop constitutes an ideal preparation for the PAD. Registration is being handled separately from PAD registration. Participants who take both courses will benefit from a reduced combined fee. [ Overview ]
