CT Scan
TOSHIBA AQUILION LB 16 SLICE WIDE BORE CT SCANNER
High Performance Versatility, Clinical performance thats optimized and right-sized
In healthcare environment that increasingly requires doing more withless, Toshiba’s Aquilion™ Large Bore CT system delivers. Accomplishing the need to image patients faster, safer and more comfortably while optimizing workflow and system utilization in more ways than ever.
Expanding Patient Access and Applications
Starting with the industry’s biggest and widest bore and advanced dose reduction technology–coupled with its highest capacity couch–Aquilion LB easily accommodates the wide strange of patients. Add today’s thinnest slices and largest field-of-view (FOV), and the Aquilion LB offers the perfect combination of image quality and patient safety for oncology planning, bariatric imaging and low-dose CT interventions.
Oncology planning with greater precision.
Aquilion LB makes it easy to marry radiation therapy with CT simulation positioning. Everytime, for every patient, without compromise.
Leap Into the Next Dimension
The Aquilion LB system supports state-of-the-art oncology applications, including 3D respiratory-gated CT simulation for advanced motion management and radiation therapy planning.
- Acquire prospective respiratory gated images.
- Enable retrospective gating with 3D acquisition mode.
- Image tumor volume in the correct dimension.
- Increase tracking accuracy and reproducibility of tumor volume.
- Phase average reconstruction provides range of motion tracking in a single image.
More Positions, More Possibilities
Aquilion LB is the only system that combines the largest bore and true FOV to cover more anatomy with greater accuracy.
- 90 cm gantry bore open in gallows uncompromised patient positioning.
- 70 cm acquired FOV achieves 40 % more diagnostic coverage.
- 85 cm extended FOV.
SIEMEN SOMATOM EMOTION 6
The Siemens SOMATOM Emotion 6 CT scanner is the 6-slice configuration of the very popular and successful Siemens SOMATON line of scanners. This model is perfect for routine scanning procedures with its fast processing speeds and easy to operate features. The Siemens SOMATOM Emotion 6 can do thin slice scanning to .5mm with rotation times as quick as 600 ms. You simply won’t find more power and speed in a 6-slice scanner. Another important feature of the Siemens SOMATOM Emotion 6 CT is the CARE Dose 4D system, which allows you to reduce patient dose by up to 68 % without compromising image quality. That’s good news for both your patients and your operators.
