Recently, dual-modality systems have been developed, aimed to correlate anatomical and functional informa- tion, improving disease localization and helping oncological or surgical treatments.
Moreover, due to the growing interest in handheld detectors for preclinical trials or small animal imaging, in this work a new dual modality integrated device, based on a Ultrasounds probe and a small Field of View Single Photon Emission gamma camera, is proposed.
