Abstract
A Nuclear Medicine (N-M) imaging system including a gantry having a stationary stator and a rotor rotatably mounted on the stator and including detection units. The rotor is driven by a rotor driving assembly including a linear encoder. The detection units mounted on the rotor include scanning columns having one or more Multi-Pixel Photon Counter (MPC) mounted on one or more extendable arm. The gantry also includes flat cables connecting the controller with gantry components, e.g., the scanning column Multi-Pixel Photon Counters (MPC). The scanning columns are pivotably moveable by a scanning column driver system including a rotary encoder.
