The Positron Emission Tomography (PET) facility combines today's most sophisticated PET and computed tomography (CT) systems, producing images that provide both metabolic and anatomic information. PET can measure physiologic function, metabolic changes in tissue, blood flow, neuroreceptors, and more. It can help diagnose psychiatric and neurological diseases, assess head trauma and movement disorders, and help diagnose and stage tumor malignancies.

The Siemens Biograph Vision Quadra, with a 106-cm axial PET field of view, offers a whole-body (vertex-to thighs) perspective so you can scan more in one position to dynamically follow tracer kinetics throughout the body. With best-in-class time-of flight performance and PET effective sensitivity, you can see with outstanding clarity. From tumor perfusion over time, to diverse physiological processes, to pediatric imaging, and more, Biograph Vision Quadra exponentially expands your realm of investigation.

The accuracy, performance, and reproducibility of Biograph Vision are the gold standard in PET/CT imaging. With Biograph Vision Quadra, you achieve the same outstanding detail and definition that you have come to expect— increased detectability of smaller lesions, reduced scan time and effective dose, and faster evaluation of treatment impact. Ten times higher effective sensitivity and the best time of flight means that no matter your imaging application, Biograph Vision Quadra delivers proven clinical outcomes at a greater scale.
