Features & Benefits
Resolving precise details with 700 μm spatial resolution
- Finest lutetium oxyorthosilicate (LSO) crystal needles provide precise signal localization preserving spatial information in raw data
- Tera-Tomo™ 3D PET iterative reconstruction with real-time Monte Carlo based physical modelling unveiling the tiniest details on the image
- Large ring diameter and statistical depth of interaction compensation offer homogeneous image quality over the entire field of view
Uncompromised applications with very low level of radioactivity
- Thick LSO crystals for excellent sensitivity
- Advanced corrections (random, scatter, LSO background etc.) ensuring quantification at low activity levels
