About

Spectrum Dynamics Medical is a medical device company that has developed a high-definition functional imaging technology that provides high-speed, high-resolution nuclear images using compact systems. The companys BroadView Technology, based on a new scanning method and novel image-reconstruction algorithms, enables a tenfold increase in sensitivity and a significant improvement in image reconstruction quality and spectral resolution. Spectrums focus since the introduction of the D-SPECT has always been the need to reduce radiation exposure for patients and medical personnel. Its solid-state digital detector technology has the ability to count at up to 10 times the speed of a conventional Anger camera, drastically reducing imaging time (two-minute Gated SPECT study). Alternatively, the injected dose can be significantly reduced for a slightly longer acquisition time of six to 10 minutes.
