En este artículo se describirá la implementación de scanners PET/CT, los cuales están compuestos de un sistema de imagen CT y una cámara PET, ambos integrados al mismo gantry. La ventaja de este dispositivo reside en la adquisición de imágenes de alta resolución de carácter morfológico y funcional del cuerpo y tomadas en una sola sesión. Recientemente escáneres PET/MR han aparecido en el mercado; las características de su construcción, su actual funcionalidad, usos y limitaciones, serán discutidos en este trabajo.
In this paper we review the current implementation ofmodern PET/CT scanners which are composed of composed of a CT (Computed Tomography) imaging system and a PET camera in the same gantry. The advantage of this technology reside in the ability to inherently produce high resolution anatomical images and highly informative functional images of the body at the same session. The use of CT has also showed to improve image quality through lower noise in the attenuation images. More recently, PET/MR scanners have appeared on the market. This paper will review the building characteristic of those devices and describe their current functionality, limitations and usage.
