## Indications for use
The Aurora system is a medical tool intended for use by appropriately trained healthcare professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing of diseases and in the assessment of organ function for the evaluation of diseases, trauma, abnormalities, and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and cancer. The system output can also be used by the physician for staging and restaging of tumors; and planning, guiding, and monitoring therapy, including the nuclear medicine part of theragnostic procedures. •NM System: General Nuclear Medicine imaging procedures for detection of radioisotope tracer uptake in the patient body, using a variety of scanning modes supported by various acquisition types and imaging features designed to enhance image quality. The scanning modes include planar mode (Static, Multi-gated, Dynamic and Whole body) and tomographic mode (SPECT, Gated SPECT, Whole body SPECT), Imaging modes include single photon, multi-isotope, and multi-peak, with data stored in frame/list mode. The imaging-enhancement features include assortment of collimators, gating by physiological signals, and real-time automatic body contouring. • CT System: produces Cross sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of X-Ray transmission data taken at different angles and planes, including Axial, Cine, Helical (Volumetric), Cardiac, and Gated acquisitions. These images may be obtained with or without contrast. The CT system is indicated for head, whole body, cardiac and vascular X-Ray Computed Tomography applications. •NM+ CT System: Combined, hybrid SPECT and CT protocols, for CT-based SPECT attenuation corrected imaging as well as functional and anatomical mapping imaging (localization, registration, and fusion). The Aurora system may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, components and accessories. The system may include digital processing of data and images, including display, quality check, transfer, and processing, to produce images in a variety of trans-axial and reformatted planes. The images can also be post processed to obtain additional images, imaging planes, analysis results and uptake quantitation. The system may be used for patients of all ages.
