## Indications for use
The uMI 780 PET/CT is a diagnostic imaging system that combines two existing imaging modalities - PET and CT. The quantitative distribution information of PET radiopharmaceuticals within the patient body measured by PET can assist healthcare providers in assessing the metabolic and physiological functions. CT provides diagnostic tomographic anatomical information as well as photon attenuation information for the scanned region. The accurate registration and fusion of PET and CT images provides anatomical reference for the findings in the PET images. This system is intended to be operated by qualified healthcare professionals to assist in the detection, localization, diagnosis, staging, restaging, treatment planning and treatment response evaluation for diseases and disorders in, but not limit to, oncology, cardiology and neurology.
