                                                          Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) are key imaging techniques to examine brain morphology and pathology in vivo. Synergistic effects may arise from the ability of PET to detect and quantify pathophysiological processes with very high sensitivity, and the ability of MRI to provide complementary morphological information due to the higher spatial resolution. Applying PET/MRI methods to preclinical animal models enables new (longitudinal) experimental designs and provides the potential for direct translation, thereby reducing the gap between clinical and experimental research. The SyNergy Macroscale Hub provides state-of-the-art preclinical scanners, imaging protocols, and processing pipelines for small animal PET/MRI.
