GE Healthcare Discovery NM630 - Manual (Page 5)

The ability to see more
allows you to do more.
The more precise the information healthcare providers can get about a patient’s condition,
the more effectively that patient can be treated. It is for this reason the Discovery NM630 incorporates
advanced Elite NXT detectors.
Elite NXT detectors are designed to offer outstanding SPECT resolution and exceptional contrast for superb
image quality, all to help you diagnose disease earlier and more accurately. Image quality is enhanced with
SPECT-optimized collimators and ultra-high count rate (460kCounts per second) for extremely precise lesion
detection.
An innovative design replacing four circuit boards with a single digital acquisition board results in reduced
noise and a 9.5% energy resolution for improved image contrast. Spot view resolution is improved by the
ultra-thin pressure-sensitive detector covers which reduce the distance between patient and collimator to
less than 4mm.
And fi nally, auto-body contouring minimizes the distance between patient and detector, resulting in excellent
spatial resolution in both SPECT and whole-body planar imaging.
All of which can help you diagnose and treat disease effectively and more compassionately.
“Our hospital is staffed with incredibly gifted physicians.
I want them to have the technology that allows them
to do the greatest good.”
