Scientists have created a perovskite-based gamma-ray detector that surpasses traditional nuclear medicine imaging technology. The device delivers sharper, faster, and safer scans at a fraction of the ...

A lead halide material can detect and image single gamma-ray photons with both high-spatial and high-energy resolution ...

High energy scans or the body looking for tumors or infections could be greatly improved by adopting perovskite detectors instead of the fragile or low-resolution options currently in use, a new study ...

Scientists in the UK have developed an advanced handheld imaging device that could prove a powerful tool when it comes to tackling cancer, offering 3D images of cancerous growths beneath the skin. The ...

Breakthrough perovskite crystal camera delivers sharper, faster, safer nuclear medicine scans at lower cost—promising shorter scan times, reduced radiation, and wider access to advanced diagnostics ...

A nuclear medicine scan uses small amounts of radiation to create pictures of tissues, bones, and organs inside the body. The radioactive material collects in certain areas of your body, and special ...

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AMERICAN SHARED HOSPITAL SERVICES (NYSE AMEX:AMS), a leading provider of turnkey technology solutions for advanced radiosurgical and radiation therapy services, ...

Gamma-rays are the highest energy (the shortest wavelength) type of electromagnetic radiation. They are classified as a type of an ionising radiation; with respect to alpha and beta particles they ...

Roentgen’s discovery of X-rays in 1895 was followed by a considerable burst of research: within a single year, approximately 1000 X-ray research papers were published. Yet, the scientists of the time ...

Far more of the 125,000 atom-bomb casualties at Hiroshima and Nagasaki than were first reported came from the explosion’s X-ray-like radiations. This fact, which medicine has long suspected, was ...
