A key area of interdisciplinary research, the CITMD is an interdepartmental center at the BIDMC. The co-founders of the CITMD are Robert E. Lenkinski, Ph.D., Professor of Radiology, and John V. Frangioni, M.D., Ph.D., Associate Professor of Medicine and Associate Professor of Radiology, both at Harvard Medical School. These laboratories (Lenkinski lab, Frangioni lab ) have been active in the field of molecular imaging since 1999, and are the recipients of multiple NIH, industry, and foundation peer-reviewed grants. Three years ago, the CITMD began building a small animal imaging facility (http://www.longwoodsaif.org/), which has now blossomed into a state-of-the-art center. These services include multi-modality imaging, advanced data analysis, image fusion resources, and a satellite animal facility for longitudinal studies. The CITMD is establishing a first-in-human clinical trials infrastructure to translate new cancer detection technologies into the clinic for testing on patients. This structure will ensure that promising contrast agents and imaging technology are tested on patients in a safe, efficient manner.
