PET/CT

The PET detector rings and the clinical-grade CT scanner of the Philips Gemini 64TF imaging system are physically separated, allowing for a more patient-friendly and open imaging experience. 

The CT allows rapid (<2 min) acquisition of high-resolution anatomical information, while the PET scan provides biochemical information in the tissues.

Applications of PET/CT include imaging of tumors, neurodegenerative disease, addiction, metabolic disorders, and drug development.
