| Detector
Technology |
CZT solid state detectors |
Analog, NaI based and fixed detectors |
Significantly improved energy resolution,
simultaneous dual isotope imaging and exceptional throughput |
Number of
Detectors |
9 independent detectors |
2 larger detectors |
Enables scan pattern optimization and significantly
increases in sensitivity |
| Set-Up |
Automatic set-up |
Manual set-up |
Enhanced workflow |
Quality
Control |
RFID patient dose checking |
No QC check for patient dosing |
Ensures patient-dose match |
| Scanning
Technology |
Specified region of
interest scanning |
Non-selective, general FOV acquisition |
Better count statistics in the region of
interest and significantly shortens acquisition time |
Motion |
No perceivable camera motion and no chair
motion |
Detectors rotate around patient and the
chair rotates with the patient |
Improved safety |
| Patient
Position |
Natural sitting position |
Raised arm or
unnatural position |
More flexible and increased patient comfort |
Speed |
2 Minutes for Gated SPECT |
12-20 minutes for Gated SPECT |
Higher patient throughput and potential
for new applications |
