- About NPIP and the webinar series
NPIP is the UK’s first national total-body PET imaging platform dedicated to accelerating drug discovery research. This groundbreaking initiative is paving the way for scientific advances that will shape how we predict, diagnose, and treat disease, now and for decades to come.

By bringing the nation’s clinical PET imaging research into one connected platform, NPIP is opening new possibilities for clinicians, researchers, and patients alike. Its impact will be felt across medical and academic communities through deeper insights, faster discovery, and a clearer understanding of disease at the molecular level.

This multi-part webinar series will explore the transformative potential of Long Axial Field-of-View (LAFOV) PET systems. Through a curated sequence of talks by global experts, the series will discuss how these systems are redefining imaging in clinical research, drug discovery, and clinical diagnostics. A dedicated session will also delve into the vision of NPIP to enable collaborative and scalable research.
