Double head rotating gamma camera

Manufactured by Siemens

The Double‐head rotating gamma camera is a medical imaging device used for nuclear medicine procedures. It features two detector heads that rotate around the patient, allowing for the acquisition of images from multiple angles. The camera detects and records the gamma radiation emitted by radioactive substances introduced into the patient's body, providing valuable information for diagnostic and monitoring purposes.

All MRIs were performed at 3.0 T (Erlangen, Germany) with the following sequences: T1 weighted image, T2 weighted image, fluid‐attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR), diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI), and diffusion coefficient values. Abnormal or normal signal intensity was assessed using DWI and T2 FLAIR in each of the following regions: cortex, basal ganglia, and thalamus. SPECT scans were conducted using a double‐head rotating gamma camera (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany) with ^99mTc‐ECD (25 mCi) to detect blood flow perfusion. PET scans were conducted using a GE Signa PET/MR 3.0 Tesla scanner (GE Healthcare, Milwaukee, WI) using ¹⁸F‐FDG FDG (~308 MBq) to track glucose metabolism in the brain.

Cerebral Blood Flow Assessed by SPECT

Regional cerebral blood flow was studied at baseline using SPECT. Patients
received an injection of technetium-99 m ethyl cysteinate dimer and rested for
1 h in a quiet environment with their eyes closed. SPECT image acquisitions were
performed using a double-head rotating gamma camera (Siemens) equipped with a
fan beam collimator. SPECT was carried out at baseline and at 48 weeks in
patients receiving memantine treatment.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
