Modern labs require imaging research tools that are efficient, quantitative, and flexible to address an array of workflows, animal models, and applications. The integrated nanoScan PET/CT platform is the industry-leading PET/CT imaging technology satisfying the most rigorous requirements.

• Efficiency: The nanoScan precisely integrates high-end PET and CT subsystems with a common workstation and animal support. Don’t settle for the inferior workflow and performance of inserted or clip-on PET subsystems.
• Quantification: The nanoScan has true PET ring architecture with a large LYSO detector (large FOV) and ultra-small, tightly packed detector elements. Don’t settle for the application limitations and imaging trade-offs of using high-energy collimated SPECT or continuous scintillators.
• Flexibility: With a large bore (16 cm) and TFOV (12 cm), the nanoScan PET/CT offers mouse to rabbit imaging and support. The large, open bore enables free access to the animal from the front and back for dynamic scans. Don’t settle for systems with a limiting, small FOV and closed bores.
