Scientists have created a perovskite-based gamma-ray detector that surpasses traditional nuclear medicine imaging technology. The device delivers sharper, faster, and safer scans at a fraction of the ...

A new detector aims to reduce costs while improving the quality of nuclear medicine. Physicians use nuclear medicine techniques such as SPECT scans to observe how the heart pumps, follow patterns of ...

High energy scans or the body looking for tumors or infections could be greatly improved by adopting perovskite detectors ...

Traditional scanners rely on cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) or sodium iodide detectors, which are either costly or produce ...

Imagine a medical scan that gives doctors razor-sharp images of your heart or brain in just minutes, while exposing you to ...

Researchers in Japan are developing a medical camera that can simultaneously detect radioactive tracers used for PET and SPECT scans. The team has now demonstrated that the camera can image both ...

Advancements in healthcare technology - particularly in the surgery category - have led to an increasing adoption of gamma cameras. Further, the numerous developments in radio nucleotides are ...

Use of a gamma camera to image sentinel lymph nodes during cancer surgery can help the surgeon assess the extent of cancer spread, and could help reduce mortality rates. Portable gamma camera systems ...

The global mobile gamma cameras market is poised for substantial growth, projected to achieve a valuation of USD 59.5 billion by 2023, driven by a significant emphasis on patient-centric care. This ...

Researchers invented a Compton camera of 580g which visualizes gamma rays of arbitrary energies, and succeeded in achieving a high-resolution, multicolor 3-D molecular image of a live mouse ...

The goal of this study was to evaluate the utility of a portable gamma camera for intraoperative identification and localization of sentinel nodes during laparoscopic sentinel lymphadenectomy in 55 ...
