nanoScan® SPECT/MRI and SPECT/CT
Overview
Preclinical SPECT/MRI and SPECT/CT combine the best of ultra-high SPECT resolution and ultra-high anatomical resolution
with soft tissue contrast. Mediso’s nanoScan® SPECT is highly sensitive with the ability to also perform simultaneous
multiisotope imaging (i.e. the ability to probe two or more molecular pathways simultaneously by detecting isotopes
with different emission energies). SPECT’s relatively long-lived radioisotopes render SPECT/MRI and SPECT/CT ideal for
pharmacokinetic studies of peptides and antibodies, which are readily radiolabelled, and easily translated in to the clinic.
Mediso’s nanoScan® SPECT/MRI is the only commercial fully integrated scanner. The nanoScan® SPECT/MRI is high
throughput, easy to use and virtually maintenance free with the advantage of enabling automatic co-registration of SPECT
with MRI – a challenge to achieve with two independent non-integrated systems. The sensitivity of the ultra-high resolution
Mediso nanoScan® SPECT/MRI and SPECT/CT make them ideal for 3D quantitative dynamic in vivo molecular imaging.
For analysis both InterView™ FUSION and VivoQuant™ can co-register and analyze multiple images across all modalities.

Mediso, world leaders in SPECT R&D
Mediso as manufacturer and developer with more than 20 years of expertise in clinical and preclinical SPECT technology offers
its newest design that fine tunes SPECT performance from detection through collimation to reconstruction. This results in high
resolution and high sensitivity at the same time.
Detectors
The ultra high performance (UHP) detector technology is
the key component of the SPECT system. The option UHP
to choose different crystal thickness allows for the Detector
study of a wide range of isotopes including high Technology
energy isotopes (20-600 keV).
Reconstruction
The Tera-Tomo™ 3D SPECT reconstruction Wide range
is a 3D iterative SPECT reconstruction
software which includes various of dynamic FOV
corrections such as MRI or CT
based attenuation, scatter and with high resolution

more accurate and flexible with

Collimators
Mediso developed the new Multifocus, Multisize, Multi-pinhole (M3) apertures where the projections are linked to the best
intrinsic resolution of the detector area. The novelty of the technology, using the multi-size holes combined with multiple
focusing pinholes allows for optimization for any given specific application. The M3-pinhole technology also allows for the
fine tuning of the imaging parameters to maximize the resolution-efficiency tradeoff. Various apertures are available from
whole body to organ, from ultra high sensitivity to ultra high resolution in addition to a number of parallel hole collimators.

Easy-to-use workflow
The MRI system’s ease of use is matched with its powerful
imaging capabilities, making it simple to correlate functional GRE-SP (TE/TR- 3.8/30, FOV = 64, 256*256*48, Flip Angle-25º, NEX-2,
res. 250µm, Acq. Time 12 min) with contrast agent
PET data with anatomical morphology. In addition the Images courtesy of Prof. G. Allan Johnson Center for In Vivo
subsystem is unusually quiet as its whisper gradients generate microscopy- Duke University
less than 20 dB of noise.
To complement the nanoScan® SPECT’s exceptional qualities Mediso designed unique combination of low dose, high
resolution and high speed CT with real time reconstruction to further improve the throughput of the system.
The large bore size of the CT allows even larger rodents to be examined such as rabbits or small monkeys.
