Excerpt

Thanks to PET studies, the measurement of global and regional stress and rest blood flow and flow reserve has proven to be of diagnostic and prognostic value in various clinical settings. A growing number of nuclear medicine sites in Europe are now using cardiac-centred gamma cameras for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI). In so-called “CZT cameras” a cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) crystal is used in place of the conventional sodium/ iodine (Na/I) crystal for the detection of gamma rays. Manufacturers have taken advantage of these much thinner and more flexible CZT detectors to design gamma cameras dedicated to cardiac imaging that offer a larger surface for signal detection and focused on the heart region [1]. …
