Designed for Research on Your Schedule

PET/CT access within healthcare systems is limited by clinical demand, insurance workflows, and scheduling delays. CPAI works independently based on your plans.

Fast Protocol Review

Next-day scheduling and protocol review without the delays of hospital systems.

High-Quality Repeat Imaging

Consistent, reproducible studies without administrative delays between scans.

Study-Aligned Timelines

Imaging schedules structured around your research plan, not hospital availability.

Reliable Long-Term Access

Reliable access for pilot studies and long-term research programs spanning multiple phases.

Gold-Standard Molecular Imaging

PET/CT remains the most detailed metabolic imaging method, providing insight beyond structural anatomy.
  • Early detection of disease and cancer at the metabolic level
  • Visualized and trackable disease progression
  • Superimposed structural images with metabolic findings
  • Quantifiable data produced with each scan for research analysis

Unmatched PET/CT Quality

Powered by the United Imaging uMI 550 Digital PET/CT, a research-grade system selected for sensitivity, speed, and quantitative performance.
