“Despite growth rates that are estimated at 7% per year, there are shortages with demand outstripping supply due to the long scanning time and the challenges of high cost, short life and transportation issues of the isotopes.

“This is the perfect time for the introduction of solutions from Claritas NucMed, which could help to improve efficiencies, reduce costs and provide patient benefits.”

In May 2024, Claritas HealthTech announced the completion of iPETcertum, a new software device designed to automate the detection, delineation, and quantification of isotope uptake in PET scans.

This device already obtained US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510k clearance and is commercially available.
