AXIOM Artis dMP - Technical

System Design

The rotating collimator of AXIOM Artis dMP allows upright image display and acquisition when the system gantry is in any position. What this means for the clinician is the flexibility to perform examinations at any rotational angle with optimal image orientation which enhances your workflow and makes for a comfortable work position.

With its flexible positioning, this multi-functional system covers the spectrum from fluoroscopy examinations to most vascular procedures. The +/- 90 degrees system tilt lets you perform upright examinations both ways to fit the tilting requirements of any examinations.

The stand design combined with the transverse table movement makes it easier for you to have all round access to patients. This access helps when close contact during procedure is required and during patient transfers.

Detector and Imaging System

A large format, solid-state amorphous silicon detector with more than 4 million pixels and our special processing algorithm ensures the high image quality for your clinical practice. The pincushion distortion inherent in image intensifiers has been eliminated, while the precise luminance resolution per pixel provides excellent 14-bit dynamics - much higher than conventional image intensifiers. Benefits from this higher dynamic range include a lower risk of overexposure and a better soft tissue resolution. Finally, the flat detector is enclosed within a small, compact housing to let you attain the steep angulations without hindrance.

The open architecture of the imaging system allows you to expand your clinical applications, which can be scaled to you specifications, including the integration of Dynavision, Perivision and cardiological applications along with the Siemens hemodynamic and electrophysiological system, AXIOM Sensis.

Designed for Innovative Applications

Perivision: Programmed acquisition of real-time, subtracted images of the lower limbs acquired with a stepping table mode. This mode is also user-interactive to allow for adaptation of imaging sequence to vascular flow.

Dynavision: Rotational angiography with real-time acquisition of subtracted images of vascular structures. These images can be further processed into 3D images on the syngo X Workplace. The rotating C-arm of the AXIOM Artis dMP is very stable and delivers high-speed rotation with a wide angulation range. This results in short acquisition times and the advantages are reduced bolus time, lower amount of contrast agent used, and a reduction in motion artifacts.
