Expand Your Imaging Department with SPECT/CT

Quality customer care begins in the imaging department for any healthcare facility. Diversifying the systems used in your diagnostic imaging department helps support the patients of your facility. Adding SPECT/CT technology to your department can do just that. 

SPECT/CT systems utilize SPECT scans in tandem with CT imaging. A SPECT scan is a type of nuclear medicine imaging. It uses slightly radioactive material, just enough for the machine to trace, injected into the bloodstream. As it makes its way through the body, technologists view the activity of the organs. CT scans take 3-dimensional x-ray images. SPECT/CT overlays the two scans to better locate any possible issues. 

In diagnostic imaging, SPECT/CT technology is used for a wide variety of studies. In oncology, SPECT/CT is used to track the spread of cancer and treatment responses. SPECT/CT also helps cardiologists monitor the flow of blood in the body during other studies. It can also be used throughout studies that use nuclear medicine, such as bone scans, infection, and renal imaging.
