We are presenting at AAPM 2018! BEST IN PHYSICS (IMAGING): NEW-HARP: An Avalanche Amorphous Selenium Photodetector for TOF PET Imaging (Tuesday, 7/31/2018) 11:00 AM – 12:15 PM Room: Room 202…Continue Reading July 2018
Dr. Goldan is awarded his second NIH-R21 (NIBIB Trailblazer) grant for the feasibility study of a novel high-efficiency avalanche detector for high resolution x-ray imaging applications. The proposed detector features a very thin layer of ultra-high efficiency Cadmium Selenide (CdSe), while coupled to a thicker multi-well avalanche amorphous selenium (a-Se) film, to serve as the photoelectric conversion layer…Continue Reading January 2018
Dr. Goldan is awarded his first NIH-R21 grant for the feasibility study of picosecond avalanche selenium detectors for time-of-flight (TOF) PET. The latest integration of PET with MR has greatly advanced the clinical capability in cancer detection, staging, and monitoring of treatment. A time-of-flight (TOF) PET system uses timing information to determine if two registered photons…Continue Reading September 2017
The Center for Biotechnology at Stony Brook University, on behalf of the Long Island Bioscience Hub (LIBH), announced the recipients of the fourth round of funded projects under the Hub’s technology development and commercialization initiative. Dr. Goldan received the Proof-of-Concept (POC) award for $100,000 for his project titled “Selenium multi-Well Avalanche Detectors for Medical Imaging Applications.” For…Continue Reading May 2017

The SBU-BNL Seed Grant program serves to foster collaborative efforts between scientists at the University and BNL. It is a key element for developing synergistic activities that can grow joint research programs that are aligned with the strategic plans of both institutions. Dr. Goldan received 2014 SBU-BNL SEED grant for $40,000 for the project titled…Continue Reading May 2014
Dr. Amir H. Goldan is currently a assistant professor of research Radiology at Stony Brook Medicine where he is working on the development and fabrication of medical imaging detectors for positron emission tomography (PET) and digital mammography. Dr. Goldan received his Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Waterloo, CANADA. During his…Continue Reading Welcome!
