The global SPECT scanning services market is set for remarkable growth over the next decade, according to industry projections. Valued at USD 2.1 billion in 2023, the market is expected to expand at a ...
Introduction There is increasing evidence that imaging with [123I]FP-CIT SPECT is helpful in differentiating dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) from Alzheimer's disease (AD) but it is not known how well ...
Researchers at Stichting AMC Foundation and Vrije Universiteit van Amsterdam have identified [18F]-labeled pyrazolidine-3,5-dione compounds targeting P2Y purinoceptor 12 (P2RY12; P2Y12) acting as PET ...
The planar and SPECT/CT images generated using 99m Tc-p5+14 were of high quality and readily interpretable at both one and three hours post-injection. Patients with amyloid cardiomyopathy had ...
Similarly, dementia SPECT imaging has improved. Modern SPECT utilizing multi-headed gamma cameras and quantitative analysis has a sensitivity of 86% and a specificity of 89% for the diagnosis of mild ...
If the SPECT scan is done on other organs, for example, your heart, several electrodes will be attached to your body. During the actual scanning, you will be alone in the room, but the tech will check ...
