Fast dynamic SPECT

In-vivo micro Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography, or µSPECT, is a functional imaging technique that can provide sub-mm spatial resolution by using pinhole technology. The µSPECT system installed at Infinity (MILabs U-SPECT-II) uses 75 pinholes focused on the same part of the field-of-view, resulting in sub-mm with relatively high sensitivity. This allows for fast dynamic µSPECT to visualize for example hepatobiliary transport using Tc-99m labeled mebrofenin.
