Erik Arstad is a researcher at University College London with expertise in radiochemistry and nuclear imaging technologies, particularly PET and SPECT. His work focuses on the development and application of radiotracers for in vivo imaging of metabolic processes, tumor biology, and neurodegenerative diseases. Arstad's research includes the synthesis of fluorine-18 and iodine-123 labeled compounds for PET and SPECT, with applications in assessing tumor metabolism, apoptosis, and receptor binding. His studies also explore the use of radiotracers in evaluating drug effects and disease mechanisms, contributing to both preclinical and clinical imaging research.
