Recent technological advances in medical imaging have allowed for both sequential and simultaneous acquisition of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) data. Simultaneous PET/MRI offers distinct advantages by efficiently capturing functional and metabolic processes with co-localized, high-resolution anatomical images while minimizing time and movement. We will describe some of the technical and logistic requirements for optimizing sequential and simultaneous PET/MRI in the preclinical research setting.
