Accessing the Facility

"The clarity and reproducibility of the results were just stunning. PET-CT imaging showed the metabolic state of the tumors, and the anatomical correlation with the CT scan was excellent. The meticulous work-up of the data and the very clear presentation were exemplary."

-Gerburg Wulf, Hematology/Oncology, BIDMC
