More effective and efficient care     Radical views
Siemens CT solutions can have a dramatic impact on care quality. In evaluating chest pain, for example, a 9s scan provides enough vital information to enable the “triple rule out” and facilitates the rapid diagnosis of the three major underlying causes (coronary heart disease, pulmonary embolism, and aortic dissection).
And by offering a level of image quality that nearly equals coronary angiography, our CT solutions can help free your cath lab to focus on interventional procedures.
In preventive care, the early imaging of plaques and calcium deposits in the coronary arteries can allow aggressive preventive measures or treatment to be implemented, which can help all cardiac patients avoid the need for invasive procedures later on and lower the risk of myocardial
infarction.

SOMATOM® Sensation with z-Sharp
ECG synchronized examination of the thorax to perform a triple rule out. A physician can diagnose the underlying causes of chest pain such as aortic dissection, coronary artery disease and pulmonary embolism with the help of a 15s scan.
SOMATOM Definition
A coronary CTA performed on a Dual Source CT is independent of the heart rate, takes only 6s, and allows motion-free visualization of the complete artery tree at any point of the cardiac cycle.
SOMATOM Sensation with z-Sharp
A 10s follow-up exam after placement of a 3.5 mm Cypher® stent. The resolution of below 0.4 mm allows the clear visualization of in-stent lumen.
