CARE Bolus CT

  • Scan mode for contrast bolus triggered data acquisition.
  • Significant improvement of the planning procedure and diagnosis by enabling an optimum spiral scan start after contrast injection.
  • The procedure is based on repetitive low-dose monitoring scans at one slice level and analysis of the time density curve in a region-of-interest (ROI).

CARE tin

  • Achieve the best diagnostic image quality at lowest possible dose, independent of patient size and anatomy.
  • Fully automated dose management for adults and children with up to 68% dose reduction.

CARE Filter

  • Specially designed X-ray exposure filter installed at the tube collimator. Up to 25% dose reduction with increased image quality.

CARE Topo

  • Real-time topogram
  • Manual interruption possible once desired anatomy has been imaged

CINE Display

  • Display of image sequences
  • Interactively with mouse controlled rate or automatically
  • Max. image rate 30 frames/s

Pediatric protocols

  • Special clinical protocols with 80 or 110 kV selection and a wide range of mAs settings. The X-ray exposure is adapted to the child’s (and small adults) weight and age, substantially reducing the effective patient dose.

SureView

  • Multislice Spiral Image Reconstruction
  • Brilliant image quality and dose savings up to 20% in spiral mode.

syngo 3D SSD
(Surface Shaded Display)
