Dr. Jean-Mathieu Beauregard is an associate professor of nuclear medicine at Laval University and an FRQS clinician researcher, specializing in nuclear medicine at CHU de Québec – Laval University. His clinical and scientific interests focus on molecular imaging and radiopharmaceutical therapy for cancer, known as theranostics. In 2012, his team launched the first PRRT program for neuroendocrine tumors in Quebec, and in 2020, they were the first in Canada to make PSMA-RLT accessible to prostate cancer patients on a compassionate basis.

Dr. Beauregard is a pioneer in personalized approaches to radiopharmaceutical therapies. He leads a unique study of dosimetry-guided PRRT for patients with neuroendocrine tumors, an approach that will soon be attempted for the first time in PSMA-RLT in a phase 1/2 clinical trial. Additionally, he continues to work on improving quantitative imaging techniques and dosimetry, and in a preclinical setting, he is exploring new approaches to enhancing radiopharmaceutical therapies.
