A new dual-modality probe, based on an UltraSound detector integrated with a small Field of View gamma camera, is presented. The device, dedicated to visualize small organs or tissues located at short depths, performs an US-Gamma fused image allowing to correlate morphological and functional information. The integration of image data from different diagnostic techniques allows the identification of pathological structures and greatly improves the accuracy of the diagnosis.
