Easy Justification
Combining the advanced technologies in 3-D acquisition, iterative reconstruction and randoms and scatter corrections result in an unparalleled blend of high image quality, operational "ease of use" and long term economic value. Designed to minimize annual operating costs Designed to reduce service costs Designed to provide excellent long-term economics
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy Installation
The Sceptre gantry has been designed for quick and efficient installation. Self contained cooling eliminates the need for system chillers. Small footprint No chiller required Low heat and weight load Reduced renovation costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy on the Patient
Easy on the Patient A new gantry designed for patient comfort features the largest patient aperture in PET (60cm) and a super thin gantry providing excellent "open" visibility. This combination of gantry design results in reduced patient anxiety. Large patient aperture
Thin gantry profile Excellent visibility Low table position
