DESCRIPTION:Radiotracer techniques are a common diagnosis tool in Nuclear 
 Medicine and the development of applications that are able to measure the 
 local extent of the disease\, provide improved guided byopsy\, staging or 
 identification of aggressive cancers and measurement of early biological e
 ffects of therapy are of outstanding importance.\nIn this field of Nuclear
  Medicine\, the development of devices that will help achieving the aforem
 entioned goals has become an important issue and the exploration of altern
 ative routes or finding room for improvement of the existing devices is on
 e of the highest priorities.\nOur group is investigating a novel technique
 \, Compton imaging\, that could considerably improve the current state-of-
 the-art for tumor imaging. This talk will review the concept of this new t
 echnique and how current silicon sensor technologies developed for High En
 ergy Physics applications can be employed to realize a Compton Camera that
  can improve both the spatial resolution and sensitivity of the current de
 vices.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/1431/
