The Spectrum Dynamics Medical’s VERITON™ CT is intended for use by appropriately trained health care professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, disease and organ function for the evaluation of diseases and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and trauma. The system output can be used for planning, guiding, and monitoring therapy.

SPECT: The SPECT component is intended to detect or image the distribution of radionuclides in the body or organ (physiology), using the following techniques; whole body and tomographic imaging.

CT: The CT component is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data (anatomy) from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes take at different angles. The CT part is indicated for pediatric and adult patients.

SPECT+CT: The SPECT and CT components used together acquire SPECT/CT images. The SPECT images can be corrected for attenuation with the CT images, and can be combined (image registration) to merge the patient's physiological (SPECT) and anatomical (CT) images.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
