Clinical SPECT/CT Camera

The acquisition of a clinical SPECT/CT camera is an important part of the expansion of NPL's core function as a provider of primary and secondary standards of radioactivity, to develop clinical quantitative nuclear medicine imaging (QI) with direct traceability to NPL standards. This unique facility will be the only SPECT/CT scanner in the world directly calibrated against primary standards of radioactivity, providing world-leading nuclear medicine imaging standards and research capability. The system will also support the key role NPL currently has in delivering a step change in the accuracy of dosimetry calculations for Molecular Radiotherapy (MRT), allowing better patient prognosis throu…
