Features
The Gammed VI has been specifically designed to meet the needs of surgeons and nuclear medicine physicians. It will enable you to precisely and accurately detect areas of increased radionuclide uptake. Gammed VI is unsurpassed in its ability to detect a wide range of isotopes. You will be impressed with its elegant simplicity, the result of utilizing the most advanced microprocessor technology in the design of the control module… one button activation… nothing could be easier.
The Gammed VI is designed to provide you with the ultimate in flexibility and choice. Choose from a wide variety for ergonomically designed probes that are compact, lightweight and easy on your hands.
The Gammed VI control module can be used in the automatic mode or you can customize all settings and functions to meet your specific needs and preferences.
Detector features
- High efficiency solid state and scintillation detectors operating at room temperature.
- High sensitivity and target to background ratio.
- Hot swappable.
- Can be sterilized with Ethylene Oxide gas.
- Preferred ergonomic angled design.
- Integrated collimator.
- Additional detachable collimator is optional.
The Gammed VI incorporates the powerful performance capabilities and features you require. It is reliable, accurate, compact, easy-to-use and transport with a built in carrying handle and integrated probe holder. The Gammed VI gives you a choice of displays. Choose the extra large digital display and/or two analog displays located on the upper section of the control unit. The large, easy to read displays give you a crystal clear view of all information.
