A small field of view camera for hybrid gamma and optical imaging LeesJ. E. BugbyS. L. BhatiaB. S. JambiL. K. AlqahtaniM. S. McKnightW. R. NgA. H. PerkinsA. C. 2015 The development of compact low profile gamma-ray detectors has allowed the production of small field of view, hand held imaging devices for use at the patient bedside and in operating theatres. The combination of an optical and a gamma camera, in a co-aligned configuration, offers high spatial resolution multi-modal imaging giving a superimposed scintigraphic and optical image. This innovative introduction of hybrid imaging offers new possibilities for assisting surgeons in localising the site of uptake in procedures such as sentinel node detection. Recent improvements to the camera system along with results of phantom and clinical imaging are reported.
