HOUSTON — June 11, 2021 — United Imaging, a global leader in advanced medical imaging and radiotherapy equipment celebrating its tenth anniversary, announced a number of featured products and is highlighting several distinguished speakers at this year’s SNMMI, where it is a Silver Sponsor.

On June 11, United Imaging is part of the first day of the event with a Satellite Symposium featuring speakers from Emory University School of Medicine, UC Davis Health, and UT Health Science Center. These speakers will discuss the cutting-edge clinical and research impacts of ultra-high-resolution digital PET, including the most recent clinical and research impacts of total-body PET, the clinical use of high-resolution digital cardiac PET with Rb-82, and the impact of PET AI reconstruction in routine PET imaging. We’ll also moderate an interactive Q&A.

The company also has multiple distinguished experts from the United States, South Africa, and China speaking as part of its global user meeting on June 14th entitled “Clinical Experiences With United Imaging.”
The company’s SNMMI theme this year is “Forward Thinking. Forward Innovation.” which encompasses the vision behind everything United Imaging is presenting at SNMMI in terms of products and business programs.

Among these is the newly-minted uAI® HYPER DPR (Deep Progressive Reconstruction), which is the only AI PET reconstruction technology in the market trained on high-count, total-body PET data to support small lesion detectability and improve quantitative accuracy. In addition, United Imaging has introduced HYPER FOCUS, which reduces respiratory motion artifacts and increases SNR by using respiratory signals to generate a single PET image that is registered to the CT using 100% of the acquired PET data, without requiring additional scan time. Both uAI® HYPER DPR and HYPER FOCUS are available on uMI® 550 and uMI® 780 PET/CT systems in the U.S. as part of United Imaging’s All-In Configurations™ model that includes all available functionality in new systems so customers have additional clinical tools to expand care to more patients. This technology is being rolled out in a way that breaks with industry traditions, a process which normally adds significant costs to customers and delays their ability to bring meaningful technology to patient care. To accelerate that process and help these AI technologies reach patients faster, United Imaging is providing them to the installed base at no charge as part of their award-winning Software Upgrades for Life™ program.
