France Life Imaging (FLI) is a state-funded organization in biomedical imaging established in 2012 in Saclay, France. It facilitates support and cooperation between research institutes, academic departments and industry in biomedical imaging.[2]

History

[edit]

In 2010, the French government created the multi-year funding program known as PIA[3] to bear and reduce the cost of medical equipment for research units.[4][5] From 2012 onwards, FLI has been in charge of the promotion and access of technologies in biomedical imaging, services packages for network members, industry, academic and clinical partners.[6]

Activities

[edit]

More than 160 platforms build the core of FLI of which two thirds are dedicated to preclinical imaging and the rest to clinical imaging.[7] Through FLI, partners can list, finance and facilitate access to imaging systems, such as photon counting computed tomography,[8] clinical MRI at 7 Tesla,[9] PET-MRI,[10] high spatial and temporal resolution ultrasound (Functional Ultrasound).[11]

Publications

[edit]

All source codes produced by FLI-IAM has been released under open source license.[7]

Governance

[edit]

FLI is managed by the CEA on the CEA Paris-Saclay campus with a distributed governance mode.[12] The organization works jointly with various governing bodies including the universities of Paris-Saclay, Grenoble Alpes, Aix-Marseille University, Claude Bernard Lyon I, Paris Cité , Paul Sabatier-Toulouse III, the universities of Bordeaux, Montpellier, Nancy, Nantes, Rennes and Strasbourg as well as the main research organisations, INSERM, CNRS and INRIA .
