Philips Medical Systems will begin routine deliveries of the latest version of its gantryless gamma camera, called Skylight 2.0, in August. The system, which was showcased in the Philips booth at the Society of Nuclear Medicine meeting, is equipped with version 2.0 software and two detectors that can be mounted on the ceiling or other room structure.
