Siemens has announced that its molecular imaging solutions, including the Biograph mCT, will be exhibited at the 2009 SNM Annual Meeting in Toronto.
The Biograph mCT enables facilities to serve both the nuclear medicine and the radiology department with one system.
It achieves this through the integration of PET and CT technologies, offering high-definition PET, time-of-flight technology, and CT configurations up to 128 slices.
Siemens's Biograph Truepoint 16-slice PET-CT is the latest addition to the Biograph family of clinical scanners.
This affordable and reliable imaging system has high-performance capabilities, including HD-PET and routine, 10-minute whole-body imaging.
Biograph 16 is also mobile-ready, equipped to maximise on-location patient throughput and serve multiple communities.
The Symbia family of Spect and Spect-CT scanners is flexible enough to meet the changing needs of any imaging facility.
Symbia E, and Symbia S and T are points of entry into Spect and Spect-CT imaging for facilities that currently do not offer molecular imaging or for facilities with a limited budget.
Now available with a range of specialty diagnostic tools, Symbia systems can be used for oncology, cardiology, neurology, and general imaging purposes.
Symbia S systems limit obsolescence by offering institutions a future-ready system that is field-upgradeable to diagnostic Spect-CT.
New solutions in system applications that will be shown at SNM 2009 include a new thin-client solution for Spect systems, Symbia.net.
This application allows for increased workflow efficiency, ease of use and portability for users.
