In this work we describe MedIGrid, an application that enables nuclear doctors to transparently use high performance computers and storage systems for the PET/SPECT (Positron Emission Tomography/Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography) image processing, management, visualization and analysis. MedIGrid is the result of the joint efforts of a group of researchers committed to the development of a distributed application to test and deploy new reconstruction methods in clinical environments.

In the following we describe how the collaboration among different research groups has contributed to the integration of the application into a single framework. The results of our work will be discussed.
