Direct conversion, solid-state CZT semiconductor technology
Pixel Size:
BSGI 3.2mm vs CZT 2.46mm
Energy Resolution (FWHM) for Tc-99m:
BSGI >15% vs CZT <6%
Result of CZT Detectors is:
Better Sensitivity, Better Contrast, and Better Image Quality

BREAST IMAGING AND BREAST SCAN FOR WOMEN WITH DENSE BREASTS
Registered Collimator Design
- Lead collimator holes are fully aligned to the 2.46mm pixel size on the CZT crystal for optimised spatial resolution & sensitivity
- The registered collimator has square holes that are matched to the individual crystal pixels in both the shape and location
- Improved resolution and sensitivity result from signals prevented from landing between or across pixels. Therefore not detected as partial photons or rejected like scatter photons
- High efficiency collimator combined with dual detector design enables improved resolution and sensitivity without compromising lesion detectability

Greater Clinical Confidence
BSGI Detector CZT Detector
*Comparison made at equal count density to clinical exams
Designed with a Woman in Mind
Mechanically Registered Dual Detectors
- Physically aligned top and bottom detectors precisely match each other
- Enhanced clinical confidence with verification that a suspected lesion appears in the same position by both heads in each image
- When an image is taken, the system automatically "sums" the top and bottom images to make one higher count combined image enhancing the signal to noise, delivering better lesion detectability
Direct Conversion Detectors Powered by CZT
- Up-close scanning-only the region of interest, including the chest wall
- Minimising detector-to-tissue distance to increase sensitivity
- Improved spatial resolution - collimator is precisely matched to individual detector pixels
- Up to three times the sensitivity of conventional nuclear detectors
- No crosstalk and edge-free imaging across the entire field of view
Ergonomically Designed for the Patient
- Light, pain-free immobilisation used during exam; no painful compression
- Scanned in either seated or standing position, whichever is more comfortable
- Flexible gantry positioning; 360 degree rotation of detectors for the most favourable position
- Fits most patients - Large 24 x 16cm field of view for maximum breast coverage and any breast tissue type
- Claustrophobia-free open design
