The ECAM SCINTRON Gamma Camera System is a remanufactured Siemens Gamma Camera with MiE Workstation. It is designed for diagnostic nuclear medicine used toperform static, dynamic and gated studies (non positron emitting tomography), as well as SPECT or planar procedure on standing, seated or recumbent patients. The ECAM SCINTRON Gamma Camera System is substantially equivalent to the legally market device e.cam, K963983, from Siemens and our device SCINTRON, K101 01 3. The changes incorporated into the remanufactured ECAM Gamma Camera include economical and ecological issues. This closes the gap between more durable electronics and mechanics lifetimes and shortened development cycles.
An assembly of static diagnostic devices designed to record, quantify, and analyse radionuclide emissions (primarily gamma rays) produced during the decay of radiopharmaceuticals or other radiation emitting materials injected into, or ingested by, a patient. It consists of an analogue or digital detector based nuclear medicine (NM) planar imaging system, crystal(s), a collimator and a set of photomultiplier tubes or photo diodes. Gamma rays pass through holes in the collimator causing light flashes within the crystal corresponding to the sites of origin in the body and the amplitude of the flash is calculated by a computer to create images.
