摘要
Total-body Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanning is a promising new method for rapidly acquiring comprehensive wide-volume metabolic data with a lower radiation dosage compared to discrete whole-body PET imaging. PET scanners are generally used with Computed Tomography (CT) scanners to precisely understand tumor location and composition with the help of anatomical images. However, PET/CT sequential imaging methods for simultaneous total-body imaging are impractical for claustrophobic patients due to the enclosed gantry design and require large examination rooms because of the need for an exceptionally long patient table. To address this challenge, the Jagiellonian-PET Tomography (J-PET) Total-body scanner employs an innovative approach: utilizing both PET and CT devices on the same patient table but from different axes. The motion system of the J-PET Total Body scanner requires custom linear stages to move both PET and CT gantries. In this study, a novel cross-staged linear guiding solution is proposed by combining scanners on intersecting separable stages. The proposed sliding system is a combination of different machine elements and will be produced for the J-PET Total-body PET/CT Scanner. Concept designs are shown, and the proposed system is described. The application of the system for the J-PET total-body PET/CT scanner is discussed. The proposed solution is still in the development phase. The system holds the potential to achieve combining CT and PET scanners from different axes and enables motion artifact-free imaging for total-body imaging.
