The Allegro system is a Single Pass™ (whole body) scanner designed to provide true volumetric imaging. It is intended for use as a diagnostic imaging device. When used with appropriate radio-pharmaceuticals, it produces images representatives of the internal distribution of radioactivity in the head or whole body. It is designed to complete six patient scans per day.
The system consists of 420 Photo-Multiplier Tubes (PMTs) which are grouped into seven PAC60s. Each PAC60 is connected to four modules totaling 28 modules, numbered 0 to 27. Each module is populated with an array of 638 Gadolinium Orthosilicate (GSO) crystals, totaling 17,864 crystals.
The main components are: Gantry, Table, Computers.
There are few moving parts on the Allegro: Table Up/Down and In/Out, Source Loader, Ring.
Computers are an Acquisition and a Server. The ACQ collects the data and is the interface to the Gantry’s electronics, and the SVR processes and stores the data. There are also Remote workstations for reading rooms.
The two current releases of software are: UGM8.1.2.1 and UGM8.1.4.1 (this version contains the most recent DICOM compliance revisions)
