SCENARIATM View

The 64ch/128slice CT system provides images with excellent visibility - even at low doses.

CardioHarmony

After image acquisition, CardioHarmony automatically*2 selects the phase of the cardiac cycle possessing the minimal amount of cardiac movement as the optimal cardiac phase. Search times for the optimal cardiac phases, which is a bottleneck in the workflow of cardiac CT, can, therefore, be significantly shortened.

  • *2 The automatic selection must be checked and may be adjusted, if necessary, by the operator.

In this example, the heart rate changed from 37 to 72 bpm during scanning, which makes it difficult to find the stationary phase. The optimal cardiac phase can be found easily by using CardioHarmony.

  • * Images and processing are performed on the SCENARIA CT system.

IntelliEC Cardiac

The tube current modulation can be set for up to 2 phases and, in doing so, it is possible to reduce the dose in cardiac CT examinations.

120kV, 0.35s/rot, Pitch 0.17, Intelli IP Lv3

  • * Images and processing are performed on the SCENARIA CT system.

IntelliCenter

Since the patient table moves up to 200mm laterally, operator can position the Region Of Interest (ROI) close to the center of the scan field without touching the patient. If the region of interest is offset from center of the scan field, then a post recon is required to align to the reconstruction center. However, by using IntelliCenter, this process can be skipped*3 and, as a result, the examination time is expected to shorten*4. In general, it is expected to improve the spatial resolution of the image by setting the scan area at the center of rotation. The integration of table lateral movement and tilt scanning also allow more flexibility in head examination. CTDIVol is reduced by a minimum of 8.0%*5 when the head is shifted near the center of rotation and the dose compensation filter is switched from standard to small.

  • *3 Limited to cases where the scan area can be positioned at the center of the FOV by lateral movement.
  • *4 The time starting from the patient lying on the table, until the end of the scan.
  • *5 Scan parameters: Tube voltage 120kV, Tube current 300mA, Scanning time 1.0s, 0.625mm×32rows

Dose Management

DICOM SR

Using the DICOM standard, it is possible to transfer dose information as a DICOM Structured Report (DICOM SR) to PACS etc.

Simple Dose Report

Dose information can be transferred to PACS etc. as a secondary capture image.

3-Unit Design - Compact space

The entire system comprises just three components*6; gantry, patient table and operator console. No additional units, such as system transformers, are required, so the space in the CT room can be maximized for clinical use.

  • *6 For power supply voltage 380/400V

Eco mode

Eco mode has two functions: On-time Standby and Off-time mode.
The On-time Standby function controls the units mounted in the gantry, thereby reducing power consumption by up to 48% compared to Eco mode OFF.
The Off-time mode cuts off the electricity, but maintains the operating readiness of the detector. With Off-time mode, the power consumption during standby is reduced by up to 60% compared to when not in use.
