Profile

The inter-faculty European Institute for Molecular Imaging (EIMI) develops molecular imaging technologies in the major disease areas cardiovascular disease, inflammation, neurodegeneration and oncology. The most important applications comprise imaging studies in model systems, which can be directly translated into clinical application to serve imaging-guided patient-tailored diagnosis and treatment. Beside research efforts the team fosters teaching and training of young researchers.
