vHP3*—Variable Helical Parameters
Overall faster scan times make vHP3 compliant to the needs of the patient, and shorten exam times for trauma imaging when every second is critical.
With this technology, a single series reconstruction enables several studies to be interpreted simultaneously for faster scans when every second counts.
vHP3 may also help you:
- Decrease radiation dose
- Decrease the amount of IV contrast needed
- Improve the workflow of complex clinical exams
*Option
Easy Patient Positioning
Aquilion Prime SP’s accessible gantry and couch have been designed for enhanced comfort, particularly for bariatric patients or those who are elderly and living with cancer.
*Option
Aquilion Prime SP’s accessible gantry design and powerful advanced imaging applications deliver an ideal oncology solution to assist clinicians with visualization, staging and treatment planning.
Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction 3D
Single Energy Metal Artifact Reduction (SEMAR)
SURESubtraction unique Differential Iodine Enhancement
Aquilion ONE / PRISM Edition
Transforming CT and Oncology care
Clinically-focused research and technological developments have culminated in a CT system that reduces dose and simplifies workflows for tumor visualization and assessment.
System Highlights:
- Up to 16 cm z-axis coverage
- 0.5 mm × 320 PUREViSION detector row
- 0.275 sec rotation
SilverBeam Filter
The detail of a CT at the dose on the order of an X-ray exam
SilverBeam, a beam shaping energy filter, leverages the photon-attenuating properties of silver to selectively remove low energy photons from a polychromatic X-ray beam, leaving an energy spectrum optimized for lung cancer screening.
Deep Learning Spectral
A fully integrated end-to-end spectral workflow
The Aquilion ONE / PRISM Edition harnesses the temporal benefits of rapid kV switching with patient specific mA modulation and combines them with a Deep Learning Reconstruction that delivers excellent energy separation and low-noise properties.
What’s more, its fully integrated end-to-end workflow is easy to use and can be conveniently incorporated into your routine protocols.
Tumor Assessment with Whole Organ Perfusion
Volume Perfusion Liver*
With the ability to evaluate tumor response or anti-angiogenesis, CT body perfusion has become a valuable clinical tool – especially now that you’ve got 16 cm of z-axis coverage at your disposal.
Liver Perfusion Protocol: DLP = 720.8 mGy.cm, Effective dose = 10.81 mSv (k = 0.015)
*CT Volume perfusion only available with Aquilion ONE
Outstanding Lesion Visualization and Assessment
SURESubtraction Body
- Assessment of tumors, lymph nodes and vascular lesions
- Infarcts, ischemia
