Purpose:

The SPECT/CT is able to acquire diagnostic information resolved the difficult problems that

discriminate regions of focals by intergrating functional images and anatomical images. We

introduce the usefulness of “Volumetrix Suite” which can describe 3D images by the convergence

of the SPECT/CT images and reference CT images.

Materials and Methods:

We applied Volumetrix Suite program (Volumetrix IR,Volumetrix 3D) to patients, Bone, Venography ,

Parathyroid, WBC, taken diagnostic CT examination which have same regions of focal in Seoul

Metropolitan Government Seoul National University Boramae Medical Center. After acquiring

SPECT/CT images and reference CT images, we fused a couple of scans applying for this

programs. The CT scan of Infinia Hawkeye 4 shows limitation of anatomical information. For this

reason, we tried to transfer CT images that have lots of diagnostic informations as the form of

Dicom file in PACS, and changed from 2D images to 3D images after image registering in Xeleris

Workstaion of Hawkeye 4.

Results & Conclusion:

By using Volumetrix Suite program, we’re able to acquire more accurate anatomical informations

with 3D rendering which can distinguish both location and range of focals in Infinia Hawkeye 4.

Thus, the result of utilizing this program indicate that nuclear medicine anatomical images can be

improved by providing more diagnostic imformations produced by its program. (Korean J Nucl Med
