Performance Evaluation

A recent publication in Molecular Imaging and Biology provides the full details of the system performance, a summary of some key outcomes is provided here.

This authors followed the NEMA NU 4-2008 standard to assess the performance of the SimPET-S insert, along with it’s performance within the M7, compact, permanent magnet MRI system from Aspect Imaging.
