Precision energy detection that delivers 10x more information

By measuring the energy of individual photons, we provide 10x more information than existing technologies. Redlen’s precision energy detection technology amplifies the accuracy, efficiency, and safety of imaging products that impact humans daily, including:

Increase diagnostic accuracy, image quality and safety with high resolution, low dose radiation imaging modules.

Major medical CT OEM’s are incorporating Redlen's high resolution multi-energy X-ray imaging modules into next generation photon counting CT scanners. Redlen’s energy sensitive detection capability enables photon counting CT systems to identify and image specific materials within the body – while also providing typically twice the image resolution at 40% lower radiation dose. Collectively new photon counting enabled CT systems will dramatically improve diagnostic accuracy and patient safety compared to historical scintillator technologies.

Redlen’s advanced CZT semiconductor sensor technology is also used for precision gamma radiation imaging used in full body nuclear imaging Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) systems, and in specialized, cardiology and molecular breast gamma imaging systems primarily to diagnose cancer, and detect heart defects:

 

CARDIOLOGY CASE STUDY    

Current imaging platforms for cardiology require significantly more time to complete a dual isotope nuclear scan than a CZT based system. By comparison, traditional nuclear imaging systems perform two scans; one of 16 minutes and a second of 21 minutes separated by a 6 hour wait period while CZT based cardiology imaging systems  perform both scans at typically double the resolution in a total time of minutes. A substantial benefit for both the patient and the clinic.
