Nuclear Medicine

The gamma camera is an indispensable nuclear medicine imaging system that works according to the Anger principle and enables functional imaging of the body. It provides valuable diagnostic information by detecting gamma radiation emitted by specific radiopharmaceuticals that accumulate in the organs or tissues to be examined. Its main components, consisting of collimator, NaI crystal, light guide, photomultiplier and localisation matrix, work together precisely to capture the spatial distribution of radioactivity and convert it into a clinically useful image.

The wide range of applications of the gamma camera in medical diagnostics, particularly in oncology, the assessment of organ functions and therapy monitoring, emphasise its importance as a complementary method to anatomical imaging techniques.

The ability to visualise physiological processes at the molecular level makes the gamma camera an important tool for the early detection, diagnosis and monitoring of a wide range of diseases.the power of radioisotopes for health – In nuclear medicine, radioactive substances are used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Our scintillators enable precise measurements and safe applications in this important area of medical care.

Gamma, X-ray and electron radiation are used in radiotherapy. The radiation comes from devices or medical preparations. The aim is to treat benign or malignant diseases. Depending on the application, our materials can be used to find the disease and determine the effectiveness of the treatment.

These two procedures are used in nuclear medicine. There are already devices that combine both procedures and produce very detailed images of the body. Here, scintillators are used to localise the tracers in the patient’s body.
