CIBIT

Our mission includes basic and translational research, together with the development and exploration of new imaging technologies using state-of-the-art imaging instrumentation (MRI, PET EEG, TMS, OCT, CT, fNIRS) and combined modalities. We represent the Medical Imaging Branch of EU funded EuroBioimaging Network. We host the Medical imaging infrastructure for the National Roadmap, approved after international evaluation, which includes a large set of modalities (Cyclotron with 11C Radiochemistry for Molecular Imaging, PET/CT, 3T MR, TMS, fNIRS, EEG) all centralized at our central facility at ICNAS of the University of Coimbra, Portugal. Our interdisciplinary research program focuses on the scientific and technical strengths of the team, and is built on three main domains, which are justified by the productivity that was already achieved in the first years of operation of this infrastructure and previous integration in the Unit CNC.IBILI. These domains include Molecular and Functional Imaging, Neuroscience and Radiomics
