Device typeNuclear medicine system synchronizer: A physiological monitoring unit used a component of a diagnostic nuclear medicine imaging system, e.g., single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET) or gamma camera, that produces a signal which enables image formation or data collection to be synchronized with a specific measurable physiological parameter, e.g., the beginning of a patient's respiratory or cardiac cycle. It is primarily used for the purpose of artifact reduction or enhancement of signal-to-noise ratios in various real-time or dynamic nuclear medicine imaging applications. It is sometimes referred to as a gated imaging accessory or trigger.
