CHOC’s Nuclear Medicine Suite opened in the summer of 2022, bringing the first dedicated pediatric nuclear medicine and molecular imaging department to Orange County. Located in the hospital’s Bill Holmes Tower, the 4,000 SF department is home to two SPECT-CT scanners and one PET-CT scanner, allowing pediatric patients from newborn to young adult to undergo advanced diagnostic imaging with treatments that can be calibrated to provide the lowest possible radiation but highest quality imaging for accurate diagnosis. In response to space constraints, the three modalities are aligned along a common corridor and share a single control room.
