Product Description: The Siemens Biograph 40 PET/CT Scanner is a flexible and high-powered medical imaging platform that completely integrates the functional sensitivity of PET with the rich anatomical detail of diagnostic multislice CT. It is built on the world-renowned SOMATOM® Emotion CT platform and features exclusive technologies such as HD•PET, TrueV, and SureView to offer superb image quality and enhanced diagnostic confidence. The system’s HD•PET technology provides uniform, high resolution throughout the field of view, while TrueV extends the PET field of view by 33% in the axial dimension, increasing count rate performance by over 70%. This allows for the flexibility to lower dose rates or shorten scan times by 50%. With the ability to perform routine 10-minute PET exams, the Biograph 40 is an excellent solution for facilities seeking a system that optimizes clinical throughput and can detect metabolic changes before anatomical changes are visible.
