Pilot Study on the Feasibility of High-energy Collimation With Optimized Geometry on a VERITON™ CZT Camera (HELIOS)
Functional imaging using scintigraphy plays a major role in the diagnosis and monitoring of many diseases, particularly thanks to its ability to perform whole-body examinations with high contrast. The indications and use of scintigraphy have increased in recent years, particularly in connection with the development of internal vectorized radiotherapy. This therapeutic approach is based on the administration of radiotracers that enable targeted irradiation of tumor cells, whose biodistribution throughout the body can be analyzed and quantified using scintigraphy, particularly with iodine-131 and lutetium-177.
The recent boom in scintigraphy is also linked to the development of new 360° geometry CZT-SPECT cameras, which enable rapid tomographic acquisitions of the entire body with significantly improved image quality compared to conventional cameras. These systems use mobile CZT semiconductor detectors that dynamically scan the anatomical regions of interest.
CZT detectors are combined with a collimation system consisting of tungsten septa, which are essential for the directional filtering of gamma photons. Unlike conventional scintigraphic cameras, where collimators can be changed or adjusted according to the energy of the detected photons, CZT-SPECT 360° cameras generally rely on fixed collimation, which cannot be changed.

Overall quality of whole-body CZT acquisitions with iodine-131
Lasso di tempo: 1 month

For iodine-131, the overall quality of images acquired using the CZT-SPECT camera with the new collimator will be described based on an ordinal score for stellar artifacts (absent, present but not interfering, present and interfering), assessed independently by two experienced readers.
The frequency and severity of artifacts will be reported, as well as their association with the interpretable or non-interpretable nature of the examinations defined in the primary endpoint.
Inter-reader agreement will also be described.
