• Data analysis and interpretation
• Correlation with clinical, laboratory and other imaging data

Technically Advanced Nuclear Medicine

We are equipped with four gamma cameras, all with SPECT (tomographic) capabilities; two of our cameras have dual heads for faster acquisition of images and added comfort to the patient. We also provide PET (Positron Emission Tomography) services. Our department, filmless with integrated PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System), allows for more elaborate display and analysis of the images, and minimizes the misplacement of data.
