Clinical Applications
The Cardio MD is optimized for focused cardiac studies where a small, high-resolution field-of-view is required.
- Myocardial perfusion imaging (cardiac SPECT / cardiac perfusion imaging)
- Gated SPECT for cardiac function and ejection fraction assessment
- Dynamic and planar nuclear cardiology studies
- General nuclear cardiology procedures requiring small FOV and high-resolution cardiac imaging
