Flexible 3D SPECT imaging in Würzburg
Thursday, 25 November 2010 14:18

The Nuclear Medicine Department of the University Hospital in Würzburg uses the declipseSPECT system for several clinical research projects. The flexible use of the solution and the close collaboration with the SurgicEye development team are the key for this technology to bring innovations in radio-guided surgery.

Flexible 3D SPECT imaging in Würzburg

The University Hospital in Würzburg has recently started several clinical research projects with SurgicEye's declipseSPECT solution. A variety of applications coordinated by the Nuclear Medicine Department are currently being conducted. The primary investigator Dr. Michael Kreissl leads the projects around the declipseSPECT imaging and navigation solutions. Dr. Kreissl especially likes the flexibility of the device. The device not only allows to image the distribution of a radiotracer anyplace you want / need imaging, but it is also possible to generate image data with almost any radionuclide and get a direct anatomical correlation of the images. Dr. Kreissl is convinced that this has the potential to revolutionize radio-guided surgery procedures.
