Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a medical imaging technique that is based on conventional nuclear medicine imaging and tomographic reconstruction methods. The images reflect ...

The role of functional imaging is growing in clinical practice, where it is used to investigate the functional and physiological changes in the target. Unlike anatomical imaging, functional imaging is ...

A new study is advancing a positron emission tomography (PET) imaging method that uses new 4-D image reconstruction to achieve the highest diagnostic capability for the detection of cancer. Mounting ...

Researchers in the Netherlands have succeeded in combining two forms of medical imaging techniques (microPET and microSPECT) into one piece of equipment. These techniques can be performed ...

Image reconstruction is a fundamental part of PET allowing to generate 3D tomographic images of the tracer’s spatial distribution based on the position and timing of the detected annihilation gammas.

Researchers in Japan are developing a medical camera that can simultaneously detect radioactive tracers used for PET and SPECT scans. The team has now demonstrated that the camera can image both ...

Preclinical imaging is rapidly becoming a standard technology for drug discovery and development. This adoption has been driven by the increasing pressure on pharmaceutical companies to identify ways ...

Introduction Not much is known about biologic reactions at ACL graft insertion sites. SPECT/CT is a hybrid imaging modality, which combines a 3D single photon emission computed tomography and a ...

Albira Preclinical PET SPECT CT System is an integrated trimodal system with one of the smallest footprints on the market. It allows for automated fusion between three modalities and with the use of ...

image: Patients who receive cardiac positron emission testing (PET) imaging instead of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scan experienced a significant increase in the detection of ...

Neuroimaging has been used in Parkinson disease (PD) research for 30 years, but no guidelines have yet endorsed its routine use in clinical settings Single-photon emission CT and PET are equally ...
