  • Patent number: 10568589
    Abstract: A method for performing an imaging scan of a subject includes positioning a narrow field-of-view camera at a first imaging position to acquire a first set of imaging information of a first object of interest, positioning the narrow field-of-view camera at a second imaging position to acquire a second set of imaging information of a second object of interest, determining emission counts for the first and second sets of imaging information, and utilizing the determined emission counts to generate a value that indicates a probability of a successful medical procedure being performed on the subject.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6380540
    Abstract: A gamma camera (70), comprising: at least one emission detector (72), which receives radiation emitted from the body of a subject (26) and generates signals responsive thereto; a radiation source (74), which directs radiation toward the body; at least one transmission detector (76), having a long dimension, which receives radiation transmitted through the body (26) from the radiation source (74) and generates signals responsive thereto, wherein the transmission detector (76) translates in a direction generally perpendicular to the long dimension.
