SPECT

SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography) is a nuclear imaging technique that provides detailed 3D images of how organs function. It uses a radioactive tracer injected into the body, which emits gamma rays. A gamma camera detects these emissions and a computer reconstructs images, helping diagnose conditions affecting the brain, heart, bones, and other organs.

The PET Labs centralized radiopharmacy is a specialized facility that prepares, dispenses, and distributes radiopharmaceuticals to multiple hospitals, imaging centers, and nuclear medicine departments. It operates under strict regulatory guidelines to ensure the quality, safety, and sterility of radiotracers used in SPECT imaging.
