Patients and physicians can now experience a new level of Diagnostic Imaging at Springfield Hospital. A breakthrough in nuclear medicine technology is enabling high diagnostic accuracy and low radiation dose capabilities. 

Springfield Hospital has announced the reopening of its Nuclear Medicine program in early March. 

β€œIt has been over two years since we offered this service, and we are pleased to be the first facility in Vermont and only the 5th facility in New England to make the Symbia Pro.Specta X3 TM nuclear medicine equipment available,” said Hayley Druschel, Director of Diagnostic Imaging at Springfield Hospital.

Symbia Pro.Specta X3TM is a multi-purpose single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) system that makes it possible for Springfield Hospital to extend a wide range of advanced imaging exams to patients. The system is designed with specialized tools optimized for oncology, cardiology, neurology, and other medical fields.
