The Physics & Innovation Behind Our Scans

Nuclear Precision

AI-Powered LSO/LYSO Crystal PET-CT Scanner

At the core of our center is an advanced, ultra-high-resolution PET-CT scanner equipped with high-density Lutetium Oxyorthosilicate (LSO/LYSO) scintillation crystals. These state-of-the-art crystals provide superior timing resolution, enabling advanced **Time-of-Flight (TOF)** technology.

AI-Reconstruction: Advanced deep learning algorithms that reduce noise and enhance lesions.
Time-of-Flight (TOF): Significantly increases signal-to-noise ratio for precise localization.
Sub-Millimeter Slice: Detects micro-metastatic lesions as small as 2-3 mm.
Fast Scanning: Whole-body acquisition completed in under 10-15 minutes.

By combining positron emission data with multi-slice diagnostic CT attenuation correction, our scanner delivers anatomical and metabolic alignment of unrivaled precision.

SPECT Dynamic Scintigraphy

Dual-Head SPECT Gamma Camera

Our dual-head, multi-angle SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography) Gamma Camera represents the gold standard in functional diagnostic scintigraphy. Equipped with specialized, ultra-stable sodium iodide crystals and premium photomultiplier tube configurations, this system offers:

Dual-Head Geometry: Synchronized anterior and posterior scanning for faster patient throughput.
Cardiac Gating (MUGA): Millisecond synchronization with ECG for ventricular tracking.
Renal dynamic tracking: Rapid frame acquisition (1 frame/sec) for GFR kinetics.
Premium Collimation: Low, medium, and high-energy collimators for diverse isotopes.

This high-precision collimation and detection framework allows us to perform accurate qualitative and quantitative studies using radionuclides like Technetium-99m, Iodine-131, and Thallium-201.

Gamma Camera Capabilities

  • Whole-Body Skeletal Mapping: Completed with rapid skeletal sweep speeds.
  • Dynamic GFR Tracking: Real-time split kidney function charts.
  • Thyroid Pertechnetate Uptake: Direct localized trapping measurements.
  • Myocardial Perfusion (SPECT): Standardized stress and rest evaluation.
  • Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping: Detailed visual pathing using sub-micron sulfur colloid tracers.
Quantitative Physics

SUV Max Calculations & Dose Safety

Standardized Uptake Value (SUV max) is the key metabolic yardstick in oncology imaging. By calculating the concentration of radiotracer uptake in a specific lesion relative to the injected dose and patient body weight, we deliver:

Treatment tracking: Quantitative comparison of pre- and post-treatment SUV max levels to evaluate tumor shrinkage.
ALARA Dose Optimization: Adhering strictly to standard "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" radiation levels.
Pediatric Protocols: Low-dose, highly customized pediatric scanning pipelines.
Automated Attenuation: Rapid CT scanning protocols designed specifically to minimize exposure.

Every diagnostic pathway is overseen by certified physicists and BARC-trained nuclear physicians to ensure that the patient receives the lowest possible tracer dose while retaining pristine image resolution.

Our Patient-First Safety Commitments

1. Dose-Calibration Verification

Our radioactive tracer doses are precisely measured using certified isotope calibrators, matching the exact body mass profile of the patient.

2. Short Half-Life Tracers

We use isotopes like Fluorine-18 and Gallium-68, which decays rapidly in the body and leaves no residual radiation within hours.

3. Active Hydration Protocol

We implement mandatory pre-and post-scan hydration instructions, promoting natural physiological kidney flushing for patient safety.
