Positron Emission Tomography (PET) reveals brain metabolism and is clinically central to neurodegenerative disease assessment, yet existing 3D brain foundation models treat PET as generic volumetric data, missing the structured regional metabolic information that distinguishes it from structural neuroimaging. To address these limitations, we propose ReMAP-PET, a framework that moves beyond visual encoding by supervising a partially-tuned MedicalNet 3D ResNet-50 with brain regional standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) profiles through joint regression and contrastive objectives, enabling the encoder to learn the metabolic semantics underlying PET modality.
