Description

Scintigraphy on a Standing Horse

An ingenious combination of mechanics, electronics and software makes scintigraphy on a standing horse easily achievable.
Experience gained from human medicine, including detector specifications, measurement methods and processing, as well as feed-back from our many customers have enabled us to achieve the aim of easy and fast diagnosis.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

‘MiE Equine Scanner H.R. – Scintron’ Gamma Camera system offer many advantages. It is compact, robust and mechanically superior to pendulum suspension systems. The detector support column is mounted approximately one centimeter above the floor, allowing quick and easy movements along any axis of the gantry support and thus the gantry works at a low noise level.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Motion Correction on the Fly

To minimize motion artifacts for the standing horse, MiE has developed the world’s first real time motion correction …

… the Paralyzer.

The rigid registration software allows shorter image acquisition
times and improved diagnostic quality. Using the Paralyzer software
offers the possibility to elimate the need to repeat acquisitions.
– the entire scanning process is faster
– no post processing is needed for motion correction
– allowing to increase patient throughput
– reduce staff radiation dose per examination

 

Image Fusion Software

MiE’s Image Fusion for scintigraphy and x-ray images enhances the diagnostic possibilities. The program evaluates the different structures, resolution, acquisition geometries and regions. Rotation, translation (shift) and scaling will be adjusted.

The process operates multi modal and automatic. The fusion allows the combined usage of the morphologic information of the x-ray and the functional information
of the scintigraphy in one image.
