Discovery ST
The
GE DISCOVERY ST Whole body PET/CT System is a state-of-the-art Computed
Tomography and Positron Emission Tomography Scanner. The system combines the
high performance of an 8 slice CT scan with a high resolution complete ring
PET detector. The multislice CT scan reduces artifacts associated with
respiration motion as well as metal artifact associated with dental implants
and orthopedic hardware. The advanced PET scanner is optimized for routine
3D clinical studies as well as 2D for patients with large body habitus.
Discovery
ST has capabilities for imaging all available PET tracers, provides superior
image quality, and fast imaging times (30 minutes or less).
Discovery
ST features a large bore, reducing the feeling of claustrophobia. It is an
ideal solution for your radiation therapy planning and treatment needs by
targeting areas of disease while sparing normal tissue.
