Study to Compare a Fast Gama Camera for Nuclear Imaging to Conventional Camera

Spectrum Dynamics

Overview

A feasibility trial to evaluate the usefulness of a high efficiency camera (D-SPECT) as an imaging modality for general nuclear medicine applications such as oncology.

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Allocation

Purpose

DIAGNOSTIC

Masking

NONE

Conditions

Detect Pathalogical Lesions

Interventions

GP-D-SPECTDEVICE

The D-SPECT system uses a solid-state detector, made of an alloy of Cadmium, Zinc, and Telluride, eliminating the need for thick crystals and large PMTs. As a result, the system is significantly miniaturized, and ergonomically optimized to both user and patient.
