This is an all-purpose and dual-detector SPECT/CT system that is available in either 3/8- or a 1-inch configuration, there is a free-geometry gantry and its design that enables both the 180° and the 90° detector orientations for any high scanning accuracy and efficiency.

Strength

• It is a high-performance system that has been using the footprint which is same as that of the traditional nuclear medicine camera.
• It provides an excellent image quality that is used for both localization and the attenuation correction.
• It has the ability have a helical scanning capability even if it’s used for the shorter exam timings and quality-controlled attenuation and correction maps.
• It has an easy to learn and also intuitive Windows-based user interface.
• It has the specific parameters that can optimize ones image quality and also the patient dose.

Use

• It is non-invasive in nature and also there are no ethical issues as there is no radiation involved in Nuclear Medicine.
• It involves injection of the radioactive drug that would help in displaying the distribution of the images of that particular drug in the body of the patient.
• It is used as the imaging technique which will be used to produce scans of the following:
  • Functional Scans of the Brain
  • Thyroid
  • Liver
  • Gallbladder
  • Kidney
