Global Intermed Worldwide
        Gamma Cameras
 

     Global Intermed is pleased to announce its new affiliation with MEDX, Inc. to  provide  remanufactured Gamma Cameras for medical nuclear imaging to select countries Worldwide. MedX, Inc. is an established company located in Arlington Heights, IL USA  that has been serving the nuclear imaging community for 31+ years with over 2000 installations Worldwide. Gamma Cameras and the supporting software are  efficacious, efficient and cost-effective in terms of data acquisition and interpretation of changes in cellular metabolism. They are used for diagnosis primarily in the Cardiology and Oncology Specialties but have applications in other medical specialties as well. These remanufactured units are guaranteed to meet or exceed the systems' specifications for uniformity and resolution when they were new. All of the units are fitted with new 3/8" x 15-3/4" Sodium Iodide Crystals. In addition, they come equipped with photo-multiplier tubes that include an AUTOTUNE detector and automatic field Uniformity, Linearty and Energy correction. The field of view is 400mm circular or 508 mm x 368 mm rectangular. The units employ low energy all purpose resolution (LEAP) or low energy high resolution (LEHR) collimators that can be changed easily. The counterbalanced ring SPECT gantry facilitates easy positioning and the patient table is of low attenuation for planar and SPECT imaging. A digital display indicates the rotational angle and bed position.

     The Hardware and Software  are optimized for use in Cardiology and General Nuclear Medicine procedures and meet  the NEMA (American Electrical Manufacturers Association) standards while conforming to FDA Quality System Regulations (QSR). The NuQuest™ Software is designed to run on the latest Windows operating systems and include intuitive pull-down menus. NuQuest™ can acquire and process data simultaneously while displaying dynamic on-screen pulse height analysis. The acquisition matrices range from 64 x 64 to 1024 x 1024. and are capable of receiving data from dual isotopes while  processing and displaying  it with interpretation in three dimensions. Moreover, the software is designed to provided SPECT whole body and planar imaging. Generated graphics can be be reduced to the JPEG format thereby making it possible to export the pictures and display them on any computer.  The software utilizes the DICOM Printing standard. MEDX, Inc. offers DICOM standard file storage and retrieval features as an option upon request. Software generated movies can be reduced to the AVI format for easy export and display on any computer. Finally, the software includes a powerful patient database for cataloguing examination results as well other relevant patient information. The end-users are free to upgrade their hardware as a matter of choice because the software is Windows compatible. Software network capability is standard while remote communication capacity is offered as an option. Finally, the software is being upgraded continuously by MEDX, Inc. Engineers to insure that the installations have ongoing state-of-the-art processing.
                                                                                                                                        
     The units require a minimum of 8' x 10' (2.5 m x 3.1 m) floor space although 15' x 18' (4 m x 5 m) is recommended. The total camera weight is 3051 lbs. (1384 kg.) with a Gantry floor loading force of 6 lbs/sq in. (.42 kg-force/square centimeter) and point loading of 91.4 lbs./sq. in. (6.43 kg-force/square centimeter). The entire system requires an independent clean power supply that must be separate from lighting or other non-accessory power loads. In addition, all system and accessory outlets should be supplied by a common mains spur. Any isolation or current transformers that might be required to meet location dependent requirements are available for a nominal fee.
 
     Dr. Jacque Habermel, BS, CNMT, ARRT (R) (N) writes: "The camera works quite well. The doctor and I are quite happy with the images. When it is needed, we receive great service and applications support has been unbelievably helpful. This camera is perfect for our cardiology office." Larry Thomas, CNMT and CEO of Diagnostic Imaging Solutions, Inc. states: "In 13 years of scanning, I have never seen a system as easy to use. Yet, the quality of the images rival the most expensive units on the market." Clearly, these affordable units can provide state-of-the-art imaging technology for the typical Cardiologist and Oncologist in the office setting.

     MEDX, Inc. provides support and training for operating technicians as well as maintenance & repair personnel as needed regardless of location. Service Contracts  are negotiable in scope and available upon request. The hardware and software come with a one year guarantee while the new crystal (3/8" x 15-3/4" installed in each refurbished unit) comes with a 3 year warranty. Global Intermed and MEDX, Inc. are prepared to provide you with a complete comprehensive nuclear imaging system for a fraction of the cost of a PET scanner.  Let us know how we can help.
