z-Sharp Technology
See the Difference
The revolutionary z-Sharp Technology has been designed to provide CT imaging with previously unknown sharpness, diagnostic detail, clarity and speed.
- Previously unachievable image quality with up to 40 slices per rotation
- Unprecedented diagnostic detail with the industry’s highest routine isotropic resolution of below 0.4 mm voxel size - at highest volume coverage, at any position within the scan field - without increase in dose
- Previously unknown sharpness and clarity with complete spiral artifact elimination
STRATONTM
A paradigm shift in X-ray tube technology
- Virtually unlimited power reserves for imaging of bariatric patients.
- 0 MHU anode heat storage capacity combined with the unique cooling rate of 5 MHU/min eliminates any cooling delays, maximizing patient throughput.
- No limitations for using thin-slice acquisitions together with long coverage ranges.
CARE Dose4DTM
Our fully automated dose management system CARE Dose4D gives you the unparalleled combination of maximum image quality at minimum dose. The tube current is adapted in real-time and according to the anatomy of each individual patient’s organ, thus reducing dose of up to 68%**.
Respiratory Gating CT
Visualize Full Organ and Tumor Motion
- Completely integrated workflow with respiratory signal displayed on acquisition workstation
- Spezial low pitch (0.1) spiral acquisition modes allow volume scanning
- Automated image reconstruction at user-selectable points in the respiratory cycle
- Easy visualization with integrated display tools
High-Capacity Patient Table
- Increase your scanning capability for patients weighing up to 280 kg/615 lbs.
- Scan with confidence using special obese patient scan protocols
* Optional
** Results may vary. Data on file.
