When vision and value combineHealthcare News | May 28, 2009
As countries around the globe are struggling to provide quality healthcare systems at a low cost, viable solutions are being offered to healthcare facilities by Siemens. Combining vision and value, Siemens is rendering high quality imaging systems accessible to everyone. Providing state-of-the-art imaging quality, Siemens Biograph® mCT and Biograph TruePoint 16-slice PET·CT(positron emission tomography-computed tomography) systems, Symbia® E SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography), and Symbia S SPECT•CT aid in improving access to molecular imaging technology.
Biograph family
While Biograph mCT, the world’s first molecular CT, is not an entry-level system, it is advantageous to healthcare facilities because of its ability to serve both the nuclear medicine and the radiology department with one system, one set of operators, one schedule, and one service agreement.
Another new addition to the Biograph platform, Biograph TruePoint 16 slice PET·CT provides high-definition (HD) PET·CT. This affordable and reliable imaging system has high performance capabilities, including HD·PET and routine, ten-minute whole body imaging. Biograph 16 is equipped with an efficient workflow system and a 500 pound (227 kilogram) capacity patient bed aiding in patient comfort. Faster scan times or lower radiation doses are possible with the system’s TrueV extended PET field of view technology and the industry-leading CT dose protection, CareDose 4D. Biograph 16 is mobile-ready, equipped to maximize on-location patient throughput in ten minutes.
The Biograph family is upgradeable and offers non-obsolescence protection. Biograph mCT offers options with 40-, 64-, and 128-slice CT capabilities; meanwhile, Biograph TruePoint PET·CT is available with six-, 16-, 40-, and 64-slice CT configurations.
Symbia family
Symbia S and Symbia E are both economical points of entry into SPECT and SPECT•CT imaging for facilities who currently do not offer molecular imaging or for facilities with a limited budget.
Symbia S combines state-of-the-art image quality with exceptional syngo® workflow automation and handles even higher patient volume with ease.
The Symbia E single detector imaging system is a new addition to the Symbia family of scanners. This high-quality and cost-effective SPECT·CT scanner improves reliability and versatility within healthcare facilities. Symbia E accommodates a wide range of patient sizes and is equipped for mammography purposes. Its imaging tools can also be used for oncology, cardiology, neurology, and general imaging purposes, satisfying the needs of most facilities. Facilities need not worry; Symbia E is upgradeable to a dual detector camera, thus meeting the always changing needs in workloads.
Offering vision combined with value, these four advanced imaging systems are affordable, reliable, and efficient for any institution even in a time of economic strife.
