Featured paper: Dual assessment of abnormal microvascular foot perfusion and lower extremity calcium burden in a patient with critical limb ischemia using hybrid SPECT/CT imaging
Can a "super scanner" save limbs from amputation? In this episode, we dive into groundbreaking hybrid SPECT/CT imaging technology that's revolutionizing treatment for Critical Limb Ischemia—a severe condition where poor blood flow threatens limbs. Discover how this dual-assessment machine combines blood flow visualization with calcium detection in a single scan, and follow a real patient case where this technology guided precise amputation planning to save as much healthy tissue as possible. We explore how this imaging breakthrough is helping doctors see both where blood isn't flowing and why, offering new hope for patients facing the threat of limb loss. Join us for an eye-opening look at how cutting-edge medical imaging is transforming vascular care and giving patients their best shot at keeping their limbs.
