2. Hermes provides the most accurate and consistent quantitative SPECT reconstruction on the market due to unique patient-specific Monte-Carlo-based algorithms, as confirmed in scientific publications.
3. Hermes is a market-leader in Molecular Radiotherapy (MRT) Dosimetry with numerous unique products and features, including:
a. Y90 Bremsstrahlung SPECT reconstruction using unique Monte-Carlo techniques and accurate collimator response modelling uniquely enabling quantitative SPECT/CT imaging of Hepatic Microembolisation β-therapies.
b. Hermes Voxel Dosimetry™ has a unique dose simulation method using Monte-Carlo techniques to provide improved accuracy and information-availability of the voxel-based dose calculation.
c. Uniquely the only supplier to seamlessly integrate with OLINDA/EXM 2.1: an industry-standard organ-based dose calculation software.

5. Novel registration algorithm for amyloid PET brain scans using principal component analysis and a hybrid template from ‘Normals’ and dementia patients
