User acceptance testing of new triple head gamma cameras is crucial for verifying specifications and ensuring image quality. While some intrinsic tests were impossible, the modified protocol confirmed clinical readiness.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Nuclear Medicine Technology

Background:

  • User acceptance testing (UAT) is mandatory for newly installed gamma cameras.
  • Standardized protocols exist, but modifications are needed for multi-head systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail and evaluate a modified UAT protocol for two new triple head gamma cameras.
  • To compare results between the two cameras and identify challenges in multi-head system testing.

Main Methods:

  • Employed a modified and expanded version of a standard single-head SPECT system test protocol.
  • Conducted acceptance tests on two triple head gamma cameras at Vienna University Hospital.

Main Results:

  • Presented detailed test results and comparisons between the two gamma cameras.

  • Identified limitations in testing intrinsic camera parameters for multi-head systems, preventing full vendor specification verification.

    • Conclusions:

    • The modified UAT protocol was sufficient for ensuring proper clinical working conditions.
    • Challenges exist in fully verifying multi-head gamma camera specifications due to testing limitations.
