The Vereos PET/CT System is a diagnostic imaging device that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) systems. The CT subsystem images anatomical cross-sections by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data. The PET subsystem images the distribution of PET anatomy-specific radiopharmaceuticals in the patient. The Philips Vereos PET/CT system is used for the purpose of detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging, re-staging and follow-up for monitoring therapy response of various diseases in oncology, cardiology and neurology. The system is intended to image the whole body, heart, brain, lung, gastrointestinal, bone, lymphatic, and other major organs for a wide range of patient types, sizes, and extent of diseases. Both subsystems can also be operated as fully functional, independent diagnostic tools including application of the CT scanner for diagnosis and for use in radiation therapy planning.
