PET-CT (PET / CT) in Georgia, GGHG

PET / CT GE Discovery IQ - modern equipment for cancer diagnostics

The latest generation positron emission tomography (PET / CT) GE Discovery IQ is a new version of the whole body PET / CT system. The system includes clinically significant innovations that expand and update imaging capabilities.

The state-of-the-art Lightburst detector is twice as sensitive to F18 as any other device on the market.

The five-ring configuration of the detectors allows to cover an axial field of view of 26 cm in one position, which is the largest in existing technologies and significantly reduces the research time.

VUE Point HD - 3D reconstruction technology provides resolution by geometric modeling of the detector.

ASiR - Adapted Statistical Iterative Reconstruction, reduces the radiation dose received by various organs.

An important component of the device is Q.clear - a reconstruction system that enhances the image, reduces the signal-to-noise ratio, increases the contrast of the image.
