Cardius-t, Cardius-2, Cardius-3:

The Cardius product models are intended for use in the generation of cardiac studies, including planar and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) studies, in nuclear medicine applications.

2020tc SPECT Imaging System:

The Digirad 2020tc SPECT Imaging system is intended for use in the generation of both plariar and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) clinical images in nuclear medicine applications. The Digirad SPECT Rotating Chair is used in coan unction with the Digirad 2020tc ImageraM to obtain SPECT images in patients who are :;eated in an upright position. Spo-.ifically, the 2020tc Imagerm is intended to image the distribution of radionuclides in the body by means of a photon radiation detector. In so doing, the system produces ima;ges depicting the anatomical distribution of radioisotopes within the human body for interpretation by authorized medical personnel.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
