Premier PET Imaging of Jacksonville, an outpatient facility in Jacksonville Fla., recently installed GE's Discovery ST PET/CT.
According to Barrington, Ill.-based GE Healthcare, its Discovery ST PET/CT was designed to produce images for studies in oncology, neurology and cardiology. It also enables studies in advanced cardiac perfusion.
PET/CT cardiac studies performed at Premier PET Imaging can also be used to gather ejection fraction, wall motion and calcium scoring data, which sometimes requires two or three separate examinations with other modalities, explains GE.
