In the examination room, the patient will be positioned on the device’s gurney and must remain lying motionless for 30 minutes, without moving their head.
After positioning, a peripheral vein will be punctured and a small amount of the radioactive material will be injected through this route.
Images will be acquired immediately after injection. At 15 minutes, lemon or passion fruit juice will be administered orally. The patient should not move their head at any time during image acquisition. Lemon/passion fruit juice will be provided through a straw.
