BrightView XCT Model 882482 Product Usage: BrightView XCT is a gamma camera for Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) and integrates with an attenuation device consisting of flat panel x-ray imaging components. BrightView XCT produces non-attenuation corrected SPECT images and attenuation corrected SPECT images with an x-ray transmission data that may also be used for scatter correction. The nuclear medicine images and BrightView XCT images may be registered and displayed in a fused format (overlaid in the same orientation) to provide anatomical localization of the nuclear medicine data. The BrightView XCT imaging system should only be used by trained healthcare professionals.

Precedence 16 Model # 882350 Product Usage: Precedence (cleared as Griffin) is an imaging system combining the acquisition of single photon nuclear medicine images and images from an x-ray computed tomography system. Precedence may produce non-attenuation corrected and attenuation corrected images of the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals in the body as well as x-ray transmission images. The CT transmission data may be used to produce attenuation corrected nuclear medicine images. The nuclear medicine images and the CT images may be registered and displayed in a fused format (overlaid in the same orientation) to provide combined single photon and anatomical data for anatomical localization of the nuclear medicine data. Precedence may be used either as a separate single photon system, a separate CT system or as a combined CT and single photon system. The nuclear medicine and CT images may be transferred to other systems such as a radiation therapy planning system. The Precedence Imaging System should only be used by trained healthcare professionals.
