To improve this limitation, it often relies on a clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for providing anatomical details. In this study, we designed and developed a new image co-registration platform which contains a stereotactic frame and external fiducial markers for microPET and MRI studies. The image co-registration accuracies were also validated by this new platform using various imaging protocols for microPET and MRI.9enjournal article
