High-resolution Intra-operative PSMA PET-CT in Prostate Cancer

The AURA10 PET-CT specimen imager detects and measures the electron density distribution of a specimen and the radiotracer distribution within a specimen. The function of the system is to acquire and visualize PET and CT images of a specimen, based on which a healthcare professional can rapidly verify whether the correct tissue has been resected. It can be used in any condition that requires resection surgery to visualize the resected specimen. The device is automated and semi-quantitative, i.e., qualitative regarding visualization of structure and radiotracer distribution and quantitative regarding tissue density (Hounsfield units) and radiotracer uptake in the specimen (Bq/ml). The type of specimen required is resected tissue from a patient undergoing resection surgery.
