Advance whole body scanner

Manufactured by GE Healthcare

The Advance whole body scanner is a medical imaging device designed for comprehensive scanning of the human body. It utilizes advanced imaging technology to capture detailed images of the body's internal structures. The core function of this equipment is to provide healthcare professionals with high-quality diagnostic information to support patient care and treatment.

PET scans were performed for each subject using an advance whole body scanner (General Electric Medical Systems, Milwaukee, WI).^{21 (link)} First, a series of ¹⁵O-gas studies was performed.^{21 (link)} C¹⁵O₂ and ¹⁵O₂ were continuously delivered via a mask throughout the 5-minute scan. Cerebral blood volume was measured by bolus inhalation of C¹⁵O and scanning for 3 minutes. The ¹⁵O-gas study was followed by a study of ¹¹C-FMZ.^{22 (link)} After intravenous injection of ¹¹C-FMZ, a 50-minute dynamic PET scan was initiated simultaneously with tracer administration.
The steady-state method was used to calculate CBF, cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO₂), and oxygen extraction fraction.^{23 (link),24 (link)} Dynamic data and Logan graphical analysis with reference tissue was used to calculate the binding potential (nondisplaceable) of ¹¹C-FMZ, using the time-activity curves obtained from the pons.^{22 (link),25 (link)}

PET scans were performed in each subject using an Advance wholebody scanner (General Electric Medical Systems, Wauwatosa, WI), which permits the simultaneous acquisition of 35 image slices with an interslice spacing of 4.25 mm. 18 (link) After a transmission scan using 68 Ge / 68 Ga, a series of 15 (link) O-gas studies was performed. 18 (link) Briefly, C 15 (link) The 15 O-gas study was followed by a study of 11 C-FMZ, 6,7,19 which was synthesized by 11 (link) C-methylation of demethylated-FMZ (Hoffmann-La Roche, Basel, Switzerland). After the slow intravenous injection of 11 C-FMZ, a 50-minute dynamic PET scan was initiated.
We used the steady-state method to calculate cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO 2 ), and OEF. 20 The CMRO 2 and OEF were corrected on the basis of CBV. The binding potential (BP [nondisplaceable]) of 11 C-FMZ was calculated using dynamic data and Logan graphical analysis with reference tissue, with the pons as the reference region. 19, 21 (link)

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.
