Molecular imaging technology developer Spectrum Dynamics has installed its second D-SPECT scanner that uses cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) digital modules from a new supplier.
The installations mark the commercial release of the first integrated CZT nuclear imaging detector product from CZT manufacturer Redlen Technologies, according to Spectrum. The Redlen M1762 nuclear imaging module provides a 40 x 40-mm CZT imaging array with 256 pixels; it offers direct digital readout and averages less than 6% energy resolution for imaging of technetium-99m radiopharmaceuticals, Spectrum said.
The companies are in the process of completing a long-term supply agreement.
