Siemens Symbia T Series Gamma Camera

IQ/SPECT
IQ/SPECT is the world’s first intelligent SPECT technology. With IQ/SPECT,
you can receive more information from the heart in 4 minutes than you would
with a conventional SPECT in 16 minutes. Its dual SMARTZOOM collimators work
in tandem to track the heart and keep it in the sweet spot at all times.
So the acquisition can be quick and accurate, resulting in excellent patient comfort
and superb throughput.

SMARTZOOM collimators center on the heart, collecting up to 4 times1 more counts
than parallel hole collimators.
These collimators magnify the heart while still capturing counts from the entire body,
so truncation is virtually eliminated.
IQ/SPECT’s cardio-centric orbit is centered on the heart instead
of the gantry’s mechanical center.
This ensures the heart is always in the SMARTZOOM collimators’ magnification area.

Integrated and Automatic Collimator Changer
The Automatic Collimator Changer (ACC) provides a motorized collimator motion
to the integrated collimator changer. By integrating the collimator changer into the system, Symbia eliminates the need for a collimator cart
by providing a storage area underneath the patient bed for both low
and medium energy collimators.

Saves space
Easy to use
More time to perform other tasks
More scheduling flexibility

Automatic Quality Control
With automated daily, weekly, and monthly quality control (QC), you can take comfort
in the knowledge that QC is performed routinely and consistently.
Automatic Quality Control (AQC) automatically starts the specified QC tasks
so they are finished before your first scheduled patient arrives.
AQC uses built-in shielded sources: A point source for peaking and tuning,
a line source for extrinsic flood, and a sleeve with five slits for center of rotation
and multiple head registration.
The process finishes with a report of the completed QC results and integrates with SRS.
