Abstract
A pendant breast imaging system that operates with a MRI system and which allows a planar gamma camera breast imaging system to be positioned away from the breast area while MRI imaging is occurring, and which then moves into breast imaging position after MRI imaging is complete, and which can again be removed from the breast area to allow intervention to occur is described. It may use various collimator or scintillator materials and designs.
