Molecular imaging enables the search for a different kind of discovery. The kind that has the ability to have a lasting impact on the world. A true discovery. Not only is it proof of a new way to understand something hidden deep within us, it has the ability to transcend the individual to make a greater impact on all patients.

CZT is the key component to the future of nuclear medicine. Not only is it lighter and more compact than the Nal crystals used in analog technology, it is pixelated. Housed within smaller and sleeker 39 cm x 51 cm FOV Planar and SPECT detector heads, each individual detector is like the eye of a fly, with thousands of tiny 2.46 mm sized detectors working together to capture more events, more accurately. It also enables direct conversion. With CZT, each photon is directly converted into an electrical signal that accurately identifies its location and energy. This eliminates the signal loss and noise inherent in conventional SPECT/CT detection technology, recovering lost spatial and energy resolution.

Discovery NM/CT 670 CZT is the first general purpose system designed with this breakthrough detection technology. Combined with registered collimation to deliver higher resolution images, edge-to-edge performance allowing for more comfortable positioning of your patients and the latest in advanced quantitative applications provided by Xeleris, this system is capable of transforming the entire nuclear medicine experience.

THE FUTURE OF NUCLEAR MEDICINE IS HERE

As molecular imaging continues to move toward the development of disease specific diagnoses and increasingly personalized care, clinicians are looking for technology that will get them there.For nuclear medicine, resolution is important.Early disease detection is only possible with a high system resolution that enables visualization of finer anatomic detail.In addition, research with multi-isotope exams requires precise energy resolution to reduce spillover between tracers.

With direct conversion detection, Discovery NM/CT 670 CZT has substantially improved system resolution by eliminating the signal loss and noise that comes with analog detection technology.It also uses a registered collimation design that aligns each collimator with a single detector pixel.This design eliminates the impact of collimator resolution that would normally effect the overall system resolution.The result is an improved contrast-to-noise ratio and spatial resolution down to 2.8 mm.

CZT can also simultaneously detect the energy from multiple tracers with more definition than conventional technology.Its 6.3 percent energy resolution makes it possible to explore new protocols with the variety of SPECT tracers available.

Often times, the technology needed to produce a specific result has an impact on the overall experience of getting that result. Many consumer industries have had to work around the design constraints that come with analog technology. For nuclear medicine, the crystal and photomultiplier tubes have to overlap beyond the useful field of view in order to limit image degradation at the edges. This creates a significant amount of unusable dead space at the edge of the detector making some procedures difficult, at times impossible, for patients to physically endure.

With a patient-centric design, certain exams become tolerable. One such exam is a cardiac SPECT scan requiring patients to extend and hold their arms above their head for a long duration. Also, more exams become available, such as whole-body procedures for taller patients and gurney scans for larger patients.

Just like the transition from analog to digital technology in other industries, the technology required to create a digital image is lighter, and more compact, with looser constraints on system design. Using registered collimation, Discovery NM/CT 670 CZT contains detected events entirely within a single pixel aligned to one collimator hole, even at the outermost edges of the FOV. This reduction in dead space enables a system design that can get closer to anatomies and increase patient comfort.
