Whole-body tomography PET/CT scanner uMI 780

for brain tomography160-slice

Overview
The uMI 780 is an integrated PET/CT scanner combining a long axial field of view digital PET and a 160-slice CT to support high-resolution whole-organ and whole-body molecular imaging with reduced tracer dose and fast workflows.

Key value proposition

• Integrated PET/CT: combined digital PET and 160-slice CT for coordinated anatomical and molecular imaging.
• Extended axial coverage: 30 cm axial FOV enabling fewer bed positions for whole-body and organ-level studies.
• Dose efficiency: high system sensitivity supports lower tracer injection while preserving image quality.
• Clinical throughput: axial coverage and detector design enable faster whole-body acquisitions and streamlined workflows.

Technology highlights

• 112-ring digital PET with Integrated‑Light‑Guide detector for improved light collection and spatial fidelity.
• SiPM (Silicon Photomultiplier) readout to increase photon detection efficiency and reduce signal loss.
• Ultra-fine high-precision crystals to enhance spatial resolution.
• Modular detector architecture for serviceability and system reliability.

Performance & Features

• Spatial resolution: 2.9 mm NEMA tested resolution.
• Sensitivity: 16 cps/kBq system sensitivity.
• Reconstruction: TOF + PSF enabled reconstruction for improved lesion definition.
• Image matrix: up to 600 x 600 for high-detail reconstruction.
• Axial coverage: 30 cm axial FOV to cover organs or reduce bed positions (examples: 3 bed positions eye-to-thigh; illustrations reference 4 positions for full whole-body protocols).
• Scan time: clinical whole-body protocols cited with examples down to ~5 minutes depending on protocol and bed positions.

Clinical application highlights

• High-resolution PET imaging for oncology (small lesion detection, lymph node staging).
• Neurology applications including tracer studies relevant to neurodegenerative disease.
• Whole-organ imaging protocols where extended axial coverage improves workflow.
• Protocols requiring reduced radiotracer dose or fast throughput (e.g., multi-patient scheduling).
