Bone scintigraphy is a primary application for this system, using a bone-seeking radiotracer to detect areas of abnormal bone turnover associated with metastatic disease, infection, fracture, or other skeletal pathology. Visionstar's confirmed software includes both bone imaging analysis and bone sectional imaging analysis, supporting planar whole-body bone scans and tomographic SPECT reconstruction of a specific region.
Thyroid imaging is a second application, supported by dedicated thyroid imaging, thyroid sampling, and quantitative analysis software. This class of study is generally used to assess thyroid nodules, hyperthyroidism, or thyroid uptake function, distinguishing functioning from non-functioning thyroid tissue in a way that anatomical imaging alone cannot achieve.
Renal function studies represent a third application, and one of the more extensively confirmed capabilities on this system. The software suite includes basic, dynamic, and static renal analysis, glomerular filtration rate calculation, renal perfusion analysis, and left and right renal clearance rate analysis, consistent with a standard renogram workflow used to assess split kidney function, obstruction, or perfusion in a way that structural imaging cannot replicate on its own.
Cardiac and full-body imaging make up a fourth application area, supported by confirmed customised cardiac sectional reconstruction alongside general full-body imaging and analysis software. Across all these studies, the confirmed transversal, sagittal, and coronal reconstruction modes allow the acquired data to be viewed in multiple planes after the scan, supporting more detailed review of functional findings. These applications reflect Visionstar's own confirmed software capability rather than independently verified clinical outcome data, and departments should request outcome or throughput data directly from Visionstar or Medigear.uk before making a purchasing decision.
