Overview
-
Sub-millimeter image resolution is achieved through the combination of monolithic scintillators, the latest photon counting technology and GPU-based event positioning, and iterative image reconstruction.
The 5-ring configuration ensures best-in-class sensitivity over a field of view that is adequate for whole-body mouse and rat imaging at a high count rate.
In-house hardware enables dynamic and gated studies. Intuitive, wireless acquisition software, combined with our multimodal small-animal bed, enables easy and modular multimodal imaging when used along with the γ-CUBE (SPECT) and X-CUBE (CT).
Product Principles
Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
PET is a tomography imaging device specially used for the experimental study of small animals in vivo. Compared with the clinical PET system, the spatial resolution and sensitivity of the system are higher than that of the clinical PET system, so as to adapt to the requirements of the study of small animal models. PET principle is: The developer (such as fluorodeoxyglucose, FDG) labeled with short decay period radionuclides (such as 18F, 11C, 15O, etc.), injected into the organism, releases positrons during the decay process, and a positron annihilates after encountering an electron after traveling a few tenths of a millimeter to a few millimeters. This produces a pair of high-energy gamma photons of 511KeV energy in opposite directions (180 degrees). This pair of photons is captured by a highly sensitive camera and then scattered by a computer and corrected for random information. By doing the same analysis on different positrons, we can get a three-dimensional image of how the developer accumulates in the organism. PET is the only new imaging technology that can display biomolecular metabolism, receptor and neuromediator activities in vivo, and has been widely used in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of a variety of diseases, disease judgment, efficacy evaluation, organ function research and new drug development. It has the characteristics of high sensitivity, high specificity, whole body imaging and good safety.
