Could you build this?

No Developing anatomical PET imaging software for clinical Alzheimer's diagnostics requires patented medical physics algorithms, deep clinical imaging expertise, and stringent FDA medical device clearances.

What it would actually take: The solution requires low-level image reconstruction algorithms (like iterative OSEM/TOF-PET methods) paired with deep neural networks for attenuation correction and anatomical co-registration with MRI/CT scans. The primary barriers are clinical validation on radioactive tracer data, real-time DICOM processing pipelines, and navigating FDA 510(k) or PMA regulatory certification as Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) with rigorous clinical trials.
