NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- XingImaging, a MITRO company, a pioneer in advanced research imaging, radiopharmaceutical services, and medical imaging technology, proudly announces the launch of the **NX PET Camera**, a breakthrough in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging designed to accelerate research into critical biomarkers for Parkinson's disease.
The **NX PET Camera** offers cutting-edge imaging capabilities, providing researchers with unparalleled precision in detecting and tracking neurodegenerative biomarkers. With **high-resolution PET imaging**, **advanced AI-driven data analysis**, and **enhanced biomarker mapping**, the NX PET Camera is set to revolutionize the study of Parkinson's disease progression and therapeutic response.
"Early and accurate biomarker detection is key to advancing our understanding and treatment of Parkinson's disease," said Gilles Tamagnan, CEO of XingImaging. "The NX PET Camera delivers the next-generation imaging technology needed to support groundbreaking research and improve patient outcomes."
The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research (MJFF) funded XingImaging researchers with an aim to use PET imaging to visualize changes in the dopamine pathway of the brain to collect data about PD. Jamie Eberling, PhD, senior vice president of research resources at MJFF, said of the camera's launch, "There's been monumental progress in the last few years through strong investments in finding tracers that can show us alpha-synuclein and other targets in the living brain. This high-resolution PET imaging technology magnifies the impact of these tracers by improving what we can see in real-time. The field is energized by the latest milestones in imaging getting us closer to a day where we can clearly measure, quantify and visualize brain pathology in Parkinson's disease."
The NeuroExplorer PET camera from United Imaging is a next-generation ultra-high performance human brain PET imager scanner offering unparalleled resolution (1.4 mm FWHM) and sensitivity (46 kcps/MBq) in the study of brain function. This promises to be revolutionary for imaging of neurodegenerative diseases, like Parkinson's & Alzheimer's, and psychiatric diseases enabling high signal to noise imaging even for small brain structures. XingImaging's NeuroExplorer PET camera enhances the company's delivery of the highest quality science for its research and drug development partners.
