SPECT-CT Control Room
SPECT-CTCR
The SPECT-CT Control room is located adjacent to the SPECT-CT Imaging Room, with direct visibility to the patient, for remote control of equipment with audio and visual contact with the patient via cameras, speakers and microphones.
Each Imaging Room requires a Control Room. Cable pathways for services between the Control Room, Equipment Room and Imaging Room must be established and coordinated prior to construction and developed based on vendor requirements. Equipment is to be installed to manufacturer's specifications with sufficient clearances for maintenance access. Radiation shielding is to be as advised by a qualified Radiation Consultant to suit the practice, workload and equipment procured, and all shielding on the Standard Component is indicative
only.
Additional Considerations:
- The need for and extent of emergency power and UPS must be reviewed to suit site specific requirements. UPS power is required to the SPECT-CT scanning and control equipment. Other emergency power and UPS requirements to be confirmed based on risk assessment considering the impact of a power outage on patient care/ safety. Some models of SPECT/CT require three phase power to be supplied.
- Cable management and the potential for computers to be consolidated into a rack (either within the room or in a dedicated, collocated air conditioned room/cupboard) to be determined at project level.
- Provision of a height adjustable workstation may be considered depending on local policies and staff accessibility requirements.
