The guiding principle behind Discovery NM530c’s technology and system design was to focus on the heart. This principle is evident in everything from the excellent energy and spatial resolution of its CZT detector technology, to its strategically positioned pinhole collimators, to its stationary system design with as many detectors as close to the heart as possible.

Discovery NM530c’s breakthrough Alcyone technology enables it to be a fully-stationary system. This is key to its ability to focus on the heart and enable a reduction in acquisition time translating to reduced risk of motion artifacts associated with patient movement. This is possible with two key innovations: CZT detectors and multi-pinhole collimators.

CZT detectors significantly improve resolution by directly converting gamma rays into digital signals, eliminating the need for photomultiplier tubes. This enables the compact de...
