VERITON-CT 400 Series, the World's archetypal integer SPECT/CT susceptible of high-energy imaging successful Nuclear Medicine

CZT is transforming the detector exertion utilized successful aesculapian imaging starring to shorter scan times, little radiation dose to the patient, and improved representation prime and quantitative accuracy.

Kromek's high-performance integer detectors, combined with Spectrum's 360-degree, wide-bore SPECT/CT scanner and its precocious representation reconstruction algorithms, summation the vigor scope up to 400 keV to enactment the throughput request of existent and caller emerging atomic medicine objective applications.

The 400 Series integer detector exertion sets caller standards with a 2-4 times betterment successful vigor range, strategy sensitivity, and vigor resolution. These improvements volition importantly shorten the scan times associated with existent analog oregon state-of-the-art integer technology.

"Clinical users crossed the satellite supply america with feedback connected the Nuclear Medicine challenges they face," said Spectrum Dynamics' CEO, Gilad Yoeli. "Providing the exertion to code specified challenges is what drives us.

The accrued sensitivity, improved vigor resolution, and broader vigor scope of Kromek's detector exertion marque it the close prime for the 400 Series and the precocious imaging and quantitative accuracy objective users inquire for."

"We are delighted that our CZT detectors person been integrated into Spectrum Dynamics' VERITON-CT 400 SPECT/CT systems. This enables enhanced representation prime and breakthrough objective capabilities successful integer SPECT/CT," said Arnab Basu, CEO of Kromek Group plc. "Spectrum Dynamics has agelong been astatine the forefront of processing next-generation SPECT/CT scanners to present amended diligent outcomes, and we are pleased to beryllium portion of this important beforehand successful atomic aesculapian imaging technology."
